3. 1.1 Meaning and importance of demographic dividend
1. Introduction
1.1 Meaning and importance of demographic dividend
The mean demographic dividend growth rate resulting from changes in the age structure of the population of a country (Bloom et al, 2002). A demographic dividend occurs when the drop in the birth rate leads to changes in the age distribution of a population.

4. What about the demographic dividend in Benin?
Introduction (2)
Demographic transition, or the point at which the rate of birth and death move from a high level to a low level, is a critical stage of development opportunities for families and countries. If countries can plan and make necessary investments in young people during the demographic transition, they can create a virtuous circle of improving education, human capital, and financial sector, by extension economic productivity (Mason Lee and Lee 2008).

6. Structure of population
The age structure of the population indicates that as the age increases, the number of population by age decreases. People aged 52 and over are in a very small proportion compared to the age groups years. Children 0-16 are also important in effective. The area of ​​the population aged years is less than the sum of the areas of children and the elderly

7. Fertility rate and mortality rate in total are dropping in Benin
Specifically, Benin has seen an increasing fertility rate from 1950 to 1990 when it reached a peak of 7 children per woman. From 1990 to 2010 the Benin has a fuck its fertility rate. In addition, the mortality rate over the period is continuously declining. We have to keep in mind that low and declining fertility is largely associated with increased human capital investment.

8. The window of the demographic transition began for Benin
The window of the demographic transition began for Benin. Productivity in the age group of the active population is actually run out of steam in the financing of the consumption of the elderly and children if public policies are not implemented. This is due to the economic cycle of life through the profiles of consumption and production. Indeed, the economic life cycle is a biological consequence: children and young people are not productive not; they work when they are physically and mentally mature (UN, 2013).

12. 3.1 Per Capita labor income profiles, smoothed
At 16 in Benin, young people work. However, this work is not done in administration. It is rather self-employment or informal activities. Income is increasing as the age evolves to peak 48 years when we reach the level of the largest income. However, the peak shape of the curve indicates that the age group of 48 years who have a high income is a very small number. From 49 years, labor income drop continuously with increasing age, but with a slight increase in income for self-employment.

15. 3.4 Public expenditures profiles (CGE, CGH and CGX) by age, smoothed
The State of Benin invests with partners in the education and health of young people. However, for health, it is essentially the child health programs that cover the ages of 0-5 years. There spontaneous youth programs and especially for. There is a lack of health program for the elderly which is why the value of private expenditure on health in this age group.

16. 3.5 Aggregate consumption expenditure profiles
In general, we note that the aggregate consumption in education and health follow trends by UN (2013) with the strong hypothesis of biological evolution individuals. Thus, individuals in their young ages have a high consumption of health and education to decrease progressively with advancing age.

17. 3.6 Per Capita consumption and labor income profiles
This picture shows that at 29 years old consumption and income equalize and it is the same situation as 64 years. The age group years old is that which liberates surpluses while other age groups generate deficits (see next Chart ).

22. 4. Conclusion and Project
Benin can enjoy its demographic dividend until Before 1990 the value of the first dividend was negative. The dependency ratio was still high and inactive population was a burden to the workforce. The window of opportunity is available between 1990 and Over this period, the first dividend was estimated at 0.25%. It would have reached its peak between 2020 and 2030 with an estimated average 0, 50%. This implies that the guidelines on demographic policy must take into account the dynamics of the age structure in order to implement efficient policies.

23. Investments in youth education remains low because there is significant private youth education spending. Offers education should primarily aim at harmony with the labor market. The expansion jobs contribute significantly to economic growth in Benin. In addition, the deficit itself is generated by young people would be to significantly reduce domestic savings hence the limited availability of capital for investments economically-motor growth.
