Fecundidad
En la revisión de 2000 de las estimaciones y proyecciones de población se proyectaba una tendencia de descenso de la tasa global de fecundidad en América Latina y el Caribe, con una estabilización en alrededor de 2,1 hijos por mujer.
Foreword
A Region on the Move 2025: Middle East and North Africa offers an updated data-driven overview of human mobility trends in one of the world’s most strategically positioned yet volatile regions.
Fertility
The 2000 revision of population estimates and projections forecasted a declining trend in the total fertility rate in Latin America and the Caribbean, stabilizing at around 2.1 children per woman.
Descomposición del cambio demográfico
Para describir la evolución de la población en el tiempo se puede utilizar la ecuación demográfica básica, Nt+1 = Nt + Bt - Dt + It - Et, donde la población estimada en un año t+1 (Nt+1) se obtiene tomando la población del año anterior (N ), sumando los nacimientos (B ), restando las defunciones (D ) y considerando el saldo migratorio (I- E ).
Global perspectives: barriers and gaps in accessing legal identity from desk study
The literature review identified several barriers and challenges faced by women, girls and individuals of diverse SOGIESC in accessing the legal identity system (that is, obtaining civil registration and identity documents, etc.) as presented below.
Characteristics of the causal chain
As a part of research question 1, this research study aimed to understand the following: (a) strength of evidence for the different links in the causal chain; and (b) characteristics of the causal chain that are important for researchers, policymakers and those designing interventions. Figure 2 outlines this chain.

Structural, economic and political factors affecting the chain
Research question 3 (asking about the role of political, economic and structural factors in the climate change–trafficking chain) aims to understand the ways in which systemic factors can increase or reduce/strengthen or weaken resilience.
Individual, household and community factors affecting the chain
To address research question 2 (What individual-, household- and community-level factors can influence this causal chain? How can resilience be built at these levels?), this research looked specifically at both demographic factors and community factors that could affect the causal chain.
