Countries By Population As of 2021, the world’s population is estimated to be 7.63 billion people. Asia is the most populous continent, accounting for about two-thirds of the total population. World’s five most populous countries are China, India, the US, Indonesia, and Pakistan, with a combined population of 3.6 billion. The UN predicts the global population will surpass the 10 billion mark by 2100. Population growth rate varies by country and region. However, most countries and regions have positive population growth. But, the growth rate has declined significantly in some countries like China, due to government measures to reduce the ballooning population. The population growth rate is particularly high in Sub-Saharan Africa, with countries like Tanzania, Ethiopia, and the DRC expected to join Nigeria on the list of the top ten most populous countries by 2100.

"Life expectancy at birth" is the average number of years that a newborn could expect to live, (the average age of death) while "Healthy life expectancy (HALE) at birth" is the average number of years that a person could expect to live in "full health" from birth. This measurement takes into account years lived in less than full health due to disease and/or injury. * The lack of complete and reliable mortality data, especially for low income countries and particularly on mortality among adults and the elderly, necessitates the application of modelling to estimate life expectancy. This may lead to minor differences compared with official life tables prepared by Member States. Understanding the reasons why people die helps with the understanding of how they lived, in order to improve health services and reduce preventable deaths in every country, responding effectively to changing circumstances. Annual monitoring of causes of death allows countries to address their causes and adapt health systems to react effectively. The leading causes of death are statistical estimates based on available data. These estimates are produced using data from multiple sources, including national vital registration data, latest estimates from WHO technical programmes, United Nations partners and inter-agency groups, as well as the Global Burden of Disease and other scientific studies. Before publishing, they are reviewed by WHO Member States through consultation with national focal points and WH...

ISLAMABAD: The federal government had allocated significant funds of Rs265 billion for water, sanitation and hygiene services in the provincial and federal budgets during financial year 2023. According to the Economic Survey 2022-23, in the wake of uncontrolled urbanisation and environmental changes, there was a dire need to focus on the quality of drinking water in the country. Moreover, growing population further accelerated the demand for safe drinking water. During FY 2023, a review of the budget documents showed an upward trend of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) allocations from 2018 to 2023. “There is an increase of 152 percent in budgetary allocations for WASH in FY 2023 as compared to FY 2019,” the survey added. Similarly, an increase of more than 253 percent in WASH expenditures in FY 2022 as compared to FY 2019 had been observed. The overall utilisation of the allocated budget for WASH was 86 percent in FY 2022, while it was 83 percent in FY 2021, 55 percent in FY 2020 and 57 percent in FY 2019. For the last four years, utilisation of the current budget for WASH services was more than 94 percent. On the other side, the utilisation of development budget had also improved from 39 percent in FY 2019 to 78 percent in FY 2022. “There is a visible increase in the budgetary allocations for WASH during the last five years. This is coupled with investments made under enabling environment by different development partners along Ministry of Climate Change and Environme...
