8 Billion People And Counting: What Now? | World Population Day 2023 | United Nations

The global population has reached 8 billion, what does this mean for the future of our world?
Dr. Rachel Snow of the United Nations Population Fund is here to answer your questions.
2023 Theme: Unleashing the power of gender equality: Uplifting the voices of women and girls to unlock our world’s infinite possibilities
What women and girls want matters.
They make up 49.7% of the global population, yet women and girls are often ignored in discussions on demographics, with their rights violated in population policies.
This pervasive injustice keeps women and girls out of school, the workforce and leadership positions; limits their agency and ability to make decisions about their health and sexual and reproductive lives; and heightens their vulnerability to violence, harmful practices and preventable maternal death, with a woman dying every two minutes due to pregnancy or childbirth.
We must advance gender equality to create a more just, resilient and sustainable world. The creativity, ingenuity, resources and power of women and girls are fundamental to addressing demographic and other challenges that threaten our future, including climate change and conflict.
When women and girls are empowered by societies to exert autonomy over their lives and bodies, they and their families thrive, as the UNFPA 2023 State of World Population report illustrates.
UNFPA brings its data, experience and stories to support women and girls around the world, and World Population Day gives us an opportunity to highlight the need to advance gender equality to help realize the dreams of all 8 billion of us on our planet.

    If China with higher population has a permanent UN security council Seat,Why India with a higher population not been given a permanent seat in the UN Security Council ,Why is there inequality??? India has given International Yoga Day to the World for Mankind's benefit ,When India cares for the Entire World & Stands for World Peace,India should also get a Permanent Seat in the United Nations Security Council.

    “I salute women around the world who have helped their families and communities grow and endure in the face of hardships. I would like to thank them for all that they have done, and call on all of us to enable them to work and excel in society. We must also criminalise violence, injustice and marginalisation towards women while ensuring their rights are maintained without discrimination.” *- Dr Ahmed Al-Tayeb 🎓* The Grand Sheikh of Al Azhar🎓

    My question is why would - UNFPA 🇺🇳 matters? did they move the bar ANYWHERE? a nice retirement from ineffective leadership would help. Its like when the Police or President complains about high crime 🤦 "what did society put you in that position for?" Ethiopia’s Somali region The great thing about Africa: its big.. and walk-able. all 4 Hemisphere is inside of it. 260,000 women have options. - UNFPA 🇺🇳 was not around when their ancestor walk the land. There are 4 near by countries that can help. Uganda is #1 place for refugees . economic and in this case "CLIMATE" refugees. ✍you have to be logical in your thinking. MAJOR metropolitan areas are in short distance away with none of their drought issues. Addis Ababa 🌍Ethiopians are paying top dollar to go 'glam camping' and Mogadishu is inthe massive economic building growth. the handicap is NGOs and UN special section that bring cameras in w/ no solutions + block organic help from near by. your post reminds me of their energy.

    why not answer it empirically? Since keeping on increasing makes almost everything (polution, Climate Change, suicide, depression, price of land and housing, dwindling resources, inequality), worse, try decreasing until most things are better. Of course there are other variables...But assuming those don't change too much, this seems like a good approach. Except most people who are already having more than 2 babies per couple won't do it. Why? Moloch. So any policy question flounders on Moloch and that is what we need to address before anything else. How to change the Molochian dynamics of our civilization.

    I think 4 billion ideas of people who had the chance to gain education, have access to clean freshwater and sufficient food and lead their lives in relative safety from conflicts and pandemics are worth so much more than 8 billion ideas of people, most of which are not as priviledged. I believe that the reduction of the global human population through a decrease of birth rates is key to the most essential concerns of our time and the future. While this will take generations and could well be mankind's most difficult task to achieve, it's all the more important to start implementing this now. It's striking how little discussion there is about this concern.

    Love you UN 🇺🇳 ! 😊 Trying again and again, can make us lose interest and sometimes give up on our goals, but we can stay motivated if we see that we're reaping the benefits of each effort. Sometimes we try to achieve our goals, but the effort fails. After trying a few times, we get discouraged, start doubting ourselves, and feel defeated. Never look at trying again as a loss. With each attempt, you get better, gain experience and enhance your skills. You need to analyse yourself, change the way you approach and make a plan to deal with it _.✍🏻_ 😊👏🏻 😊👏😊👏😊
