#WorldPopulationDay

If 100 people lived on earth:

1 person has 50% of all money 💵

14 people cannot read 📚

10 people have no clean water 🍵

50 people with no Internet access 💻

The world’s population has nearly tripled since 1950, and set to increase further.

The global population will hit 9.8 billion by 2050, up from 7.6 billion in 2017.

We are marking #WorldPopulationDay in recognition of the relationship between sustainable development and the issues of population growth, migration, & #urbanization.

Cities need to adequately plan for growth to prevent widespread informality & ensure access to basic services.
