The Population Factor in Africa's Development Dilemma

Abstract

Despite several decades of international effort, the development problems of sub-Saharan Africa remain acute. By many of the quality of life indexes, the majority of African countries are standing still or moving backward. A rapidly growing population with an adverse dependency ratio places demands on services that present development strategies cannot satisfy. A reorientation of development is necessary to establish realistic population policies and to implement comprehensive family planning programs.
