1. Demographic Transition Model

3. Stage 1: Low Growth Hunters and Gatherers Unpredictable food
supply made for high
CDRs
Transition into domesticated farming—high CBR
No countries** are currently in this stage
There are remote groups and some people living with these conditions.

4. Stage 2: CDR drops! But CBR stays high. This happens in
1800’s in U.S and
England: Industrial
Revolution
1950’s in African,
Asian and Latin American
countries: Medical
Revolution.
Combination of farm and factory
Most African countries are
still in this stage.

5. Stage 3: Moderate Growth
CBR begins to drop. Smaller families
NIR slows down
Countries enter
this stage because
of the change in
social norms.
Low IMR
People live in
Urban Areas and work in
Factories.
Asian and Latin
American countries
are in this stage.

6. Stage 4: Low Growth CBR and CDR are about equal Zero Growth
Replacement
Rate
TFR of 2.1 or
lower
Career, (service)
birth control, education, time and money.
United States, Japan, European Union countries are in this stage.

7. Population Pyramids

8. What is it?
Is a graph that displays information about the DTM in a compact way.
CBR, CDR, NIR, Life Expectancy, Gender,
Wealth and jobs.

10. Stage 1: Unstable

11. Stage 2: Increase in birth rate

12. Stage 3: Wider Middle

13. Stage 4: Column Shape

14. Stage 5:
