The given bar diagram displays the data ragarding the maturing inhabitants worldwide in 2000 and offers a projection for 2050. It shows the information of the continents: Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, North America, and Ocenia, as well as the world total in both the year 2000 and 2050.
Overall, as shown in the diagram, in 2000, Europe had the highest elderly population out of all continents, while Africa remained the least populated. In 2050, Europe is projected to be the most populated zone for senior citizens in the world, whereas Africa is predicted to have the lowest number of people in that age group.
In the year 2000, Europe contained 20% of the world’s ageing population in its landmass; however, Africa inhabited only 5% of global older adult residents.
Similarly, in 2050, Europe is estimated to house 35% of inhabitants worldwide, whereas Africa is forecasted to comprise just over 10% of ageing population.
