Latin America and the Caribbean Demographic Observatory 2017

The Demographic Observatory 2015 contains selected indicators from the 2015 revision of estimates and projections for the populations analysed.

Future issues will incorporate new estimates and projections, also prepared using the component method, but by simple ages and calendar years.
