Department of Economic and Social Affairs

The Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations is a vital interface

between global policies in the economic, social and environmental spheres and national

action. The Department works in three main interlinked areas: (i) it compiles, generates

and analyses a wide range of economic, social and environmental data and information

on which United Nations Member States draw to review common problems and to take

stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many

intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging

global challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the ways and means of

translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and summits into

programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps build national

capacities.

INTRODUCTION

This issue of the Population and Vital Statistics Report presents data for countries or areas1 on population size

(total, male, and female) from the latest available census, estimated total population size for 2017 or 2018 (the later available

year), and the number and rate of vital events (live births, deaths, and infant deaths) for the latest available year within the

past 15 years (2004-2018). These data are presented as reported by national statistical authorities to the Demographic

Yearbook of the Statistics Division of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.2 This issue also

presents population estimates for 2017 and 2018 of the world and its major areas and regions1. These estimates were

prepared by the Population Division of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs.3 The data described in

this paragraph are presented in three tables:

Table 1. Estimated mid-year population by major area and region, 2017 and 2018

Table 2. Population, latest available census and estimates for 2017 or 2018

Table 3. Live births, deaths, and infant deaths, latest available year within the past 15 years (2004-2018)

TECHNICAL NOTES

A. Population

Population estimates for 2017 and 2018 for the world and its major areas and regions (table 1) refer to 1 July of the

given year, and are produced by the United Nations Population Division.3

Latest population census figures for countries or areas (table 2) refer to the given date, and are presented as

reported by national statistical authorities to the Demographic Yearbook of the United Nations Statistics Division. The data

are from national population and housing censuses. These censuses use different methods of enumeration:

conventional/traditional, based on administrative/population registers, or a combination of methods that may include a

sample survey.4 The censuses are conducted on either a de facto or a de jure basis, as indicated in the column “Code.” The

de facto population consists of all persons who are physically present in the country or area at the reference date, whether or

not they are usual residents. The de jure population consists of all usual residents, whether or not they are present at the

time of the enumeration. Population census data are presented for 240 countries or areas that conducted a census during

the period 1960-2019.

Mid-year population estimates for 2017 or 2018 for countries or areas (table 2) refer to 1 July of the given year

unless otherwise stated, and are presented as reported by national statistical authorities to the Demographic Yearbook of the

United Nations Statistics Division.

They are also coded as either de jure or de facto, since for some countries or areas the

code is not the same as for the census figure.

B. Vital statistics

Table 3 presents data for countries or areas on live births, deaths, and infant deaths (excluding foetal deaths) for

the latest available year within the last 15 years (2004-2018). The data usually refer to vital events that occurred in the

specified year, even if some were registered later. In some countries or areas, however, they refer to events that were

registered in the specified year, and, therefore, include some events that occurred previously, and exclude some events that

occurred in the specified year but that were or will be registered later. In this case, the symbol “+” is displayed in the column

“Code.”

1 In table 1 of this report “countries or areas” are grouped geographically into 21 “regions” (for example, Central America), which are then grouped into six “major areas” (for example, Latin America and the Caribbean). In tables 2 and 3 they are listed by six “continents” (for example, North America). 2 Data on these and many other demographic statistics are maintained and continuously updated in the Demographic Yearbook database. A small selection of demographic statistics are published annually as the Population and Vital Statistics Report, and a much larger selection of data, including complementary technical notes, are published annually as the Demographic Yearbook. The Demographic Yearbook is also available online, at: http://unstats.un.org/unsd/demographic/products/dyb/default.htm. 3 United Nations, Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division (2019). World Population Prospects: The 2019 Revision. 4 If the census method of enumeration is not conventional/traditional, the type of method is indicated in a footnote to the census date in the table.

2

Most of the vital statistics data presented in table 3 come from national civil registration systems. These systems

differ markedly in the completeness of the data that they produce. If the country or area reports to the Demographic

Yearbook its own estimate of the completeness of its civil registration data, then this estimate is classified in the column

“Code” as follows: “C” indicates virtually complete data (that is, representing 90 per cent or more of the events occurring in

the specified year); and “U” indicates incomplete data (that is, less than 90 per cent of the events). Data not derived from civil

registration - usually official estimates from censuses, sample surveys or demographic analyses - that are assumed reliable

are indicated by “|”.

The table shows both the number of vital events and the rates at which they occur. Crude birth and death rates are

the number of live births and (total) deaths, respectively, per thousand persons in the same year. The denominators of these

rates are the estimates of mid-year population as reported by national statistical authorities to the Demographic Yearbook.

The infant mortality rate is the number of deaths of persons less than one year of age per thousand live births in the same

year. Unless otherwise stated, the rates shown were computed by the United Nations Statistics Division. Rates were only

computed when the numerator - the number of vital events - is at least 30 and when the denominator (mid-year population or

the number of live births) is available for the same year. Furthermore, rates were computed only if the code for vital events

(see the previous paragraph) is “C” or “|”.

D. Highlights

1. Population censuses

One goal of this report is to present the most recent data for total, male, and female population collected by a

national population census. In the majority of cases, national population censuses are carried out once every ten years, that

is, once every census round. A census round, as defined and implemented by the United Nations, encompasses ten years

starting with the fifth year of a decade and ending in the fourth year of the next decade. The 2020 census round started on 1

January 2015 and will end on 31 December 2024, whereas the 2010 census round started on 1 January 2005 and ended on

31 December 2014. Detailed information on planned or conducted national population censuses is collected by the United

Nations Statistics Division and presented at: http://unstats.un.org/unsd/demographic/sources/census

The latest available census figures for total population (for 1960-2019) are given in this publication for 240 countries

or areas, whenever available disaggregated by sex. Of these figures, 52 (22 per cent) refer to the current 2020 round (2015-

2024), 167 (70 per cent) refer to the 2010 census rounds (2005-2014), 13 (5 per cent) refer to the 2000 census round (1995-

2004), 3 (1 per cent) refer to the 1990 census round (1985-1994), and 5 (2 per cent) refer to the 1980 or previous census

rounds.

2. Vital statistics

The main source of vital statistics is civil registration. “Civil registration is defined as the continuous, permanent,

compulsory and universal recording of the occurrence and characteristics of vital events pertaining to the population, as

provided through decree or regulation in accordance with the legal requirements in each country.”5 The availability of detailed

5 Principles and Recommendations for a Vital Statistics System, Revision 3, Sales No.E.13.XVII.10, United Nations, New York, 2014.

vital statistics for a country or area illustrates national capacity in the compilation of these statistics from civil registration

systems. This report aims to present the most recent data for the period 2004-2018 on live births, deaths, and infant deaths

reported to the United Nations Demographic Yearbook.

Out of 240 countries or areas, the latest available figure for live births refers to year 2015 or later for 161 countries

or areas (67 per cent); to years 2010-2014 for 35 countries or areas (15 per cent) and to an earlier year for 18 countries or

areas (or 7 per cent). No data for live births are available for 26 countries or areas (or 11 per cent) for the period 2004-2018.

The availability of data on (total) deaths is similar. However, recent data on infant deaths are somewhat less available: Data

of 133 countries or areas (or 55 per cent) refer to years 2015 or later, 27 (or 11 per cent) to 2010-2014, 22 (or 9 per cent)

refer to 2009 or earlier years and 58 countries or areas (or 24 per cent) did not report data on infant deaths for the period

2004-2018.
