Maybe there's one point that you forgot and that is: the more chances women get to pursue a study and a career, the less children they tend to want. The reason for that is pretty simple: it's pretty hard to be an astrofysicus and at the same time raise 9 children. So, it all depends in what way Africa is evolving. Are they going to stay mostly rural and farmer oriented or are they going to be more education/career oriented? If they evolve in the rural direction, then they will indeed have a lot of children and a big population growth, but it could turn out the other way as well.

This video seems to me as too optimistic. For start, is the continent ready for the population increase? According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, “Africa imported about 85% of its food (2016-2018) from outside the continent,” amounting to $35bn and is expected to reach $110bn by 2025. The future for Africa will be quite a challange. This population increase is not just a positive dynamic.

@JAN0L

Жыл бұрын

The 85% most likely refers to the percentage of imports. Most countries still grow their own food, just of the food each country imports most comes from outside Africa rather than other African countries. There's no way 85% of the total food they eat comes from outside Africa. They don't have economy or the logistics capacity to actually buy and transport all this food.

I can definitely tell you as an African (though living in the west) the younger generations do not want a bunch of kids each.

It is a big part of many tribes/nations culture but that's always been the case through every civilization in human history.

"Young and thriving economy..." An increasing demographic doesn't mean a thing when there's nothing to build off of that. It's not as if there's a huge manufacturing sector or large agriculture sector. Also the level of education (be it university or the trades) isn't exactly the highest. None of those at this moment can even support or take advantage of the increased demographic.

As you have not broken them either and probably don't even know what they are, I will 'Expand Your Perception' to include these little-mentioned facts. The "9 Perception Limiting Components of Collective Antipathy", which are ALWAYS PRACTICED TOGETHER, are 1) White Supremacy, 2) Patriarchy, 3) killer-god religions and related ideologies that embrace the concept of 'Chosen and Not Chosen' people, 4) Genocide, 5) Empire, 6) Ritualized homosexuality and Child Abuse, 7) Avarice, 8) (wage) Slavery, and 9) Constant Warfare. By the way, EVERYONE ON EARTH is either 100% African or 97.55 to 99% African. Genotype is anterior to and regulates ALL phenotypes and haplogroups. You and I carry 1-2.45% Neanderthal genes. Therefore, we are, genotypically, Homo Sapien/Neanderthal hybrids. The difference between you and me is that I EMBRACE 100% of myself, and you REJECT the 97.55 to 99% of yourself that you would not be human without. (that's pathological) As the glaciers rapidly melt, Mass Extinctions multiply, man-induced natural disasters proliferate, methane levels rise to near self-sterilizing rates for some, and the Magnetic North Pole returns to its location before the start of the Younger Dryas, near Hudson Bay, blaming Black people won't reverse what practitioners of Collective Antipathy created. The pathological nature of your mindset, which has always been oppressive, and frequently genocidal, is now imminently massively self-destructive. You have little time left to become a "Civilized Being" rather than exiting as a "Technologically Advanced Savage". The key to our survival and the "Next Level of Civilization" is so simple and yet a 'bridge too far' for many to cross. All you have to do is EMBRACE 100% OF YOURSELF, REJECT Collective Antipathy in all its forms, and embrace the 'Primordial' Organizing Principle...

This was great until you got on a high horse.Why does the west need to show Africa how to 'integrate more women'? Kenya and Rwanda has constitutional mandated representatives of women. Which is higher political and power representation than most western 'democracies'. Kenya's Chief Justice and Chief Registrar are women. All 2022 Kenyan Vice President candidates are women. Liberia and Tanzania have/had women head of states before the US and other 'progressive' countries. Africa doesn't need to be saved externally. Last time it didn't work out so well. For all your optimistic prediction, Africans must be sovereign, take ourselves up and out; Build ourselves up. And save ourselves.

Oh this comment section will just be lovely

POV: I think the last thing we need is more people. In India the birth rate is slowing and no. of childless couples is also increasing. I think UN should promote family planning in Africa. No middle-class can afford to give quality life to 5-10 children. Also, this will take a toll on resources.

I missed some nuance in this. When population growth excedes economic growth, you typically get a labour surplus (an estimated 10 to 12 million africans join the labour force each year, while only 3 million jobs are created on the continent annually). This means high unemployment rates and lower wages (and a lowering of the standard of living). This is usually helped by migration to places where there are labour shortages (like the European migration to the United States in the 19th century), but in the case of Africa today it also generates a brain drain. In other words, if a population grows to fast, it can be a burden on 'real' economic growth.

The problem in the west is that women cannot focus on having a career and children simultaneously, causing birth rates to decrease, especially with the disintegration of a nuclear family (two parents and their children) and the cultural push for women to enter the workforce. One contributing factor to the gender pay gap is the result of women pausing their careers to raise children. Suppose western countries want to increase their birth rate. In that case, more support needs to be provided to parents to raise their children (paid parental leave, childcare programs, reduced medical costs associated with pregnancy and early development, etc.), and both men and women need to be seen as equals not only in the workplace but also at home, so the burdens to have children are reduced.

There is a very big difference between the CAUSES of the population growth between the 19th century Europe and 21 century Africa. In Europe this growth was achieved because of own developments in terms of technology and medicine. In Africa there is almost zero 'home grown' technology. They never developed own cars, send satellites to the moon and even the railway lines and roads are built by the Chinese. Then, when something stops working (like the tram in Addis Ababa) they ALWAYS blame others. The Chinese, the Japanese and increasingly the Indians building their own infrastructure, factories and spaceships.

That africa is a demographic time bomb is old news. A known fact for some time. However, what does it mean? and that is still up for debate and consensus. What are the literacy rates? The use of sources of research and development? Infrastructure? Financial strength and investment? Tribal conflict? The list of headwinds is long and daunting.

Because of human overpopulation and overfishing, people in the Philippines can no longer make much money fishing, because Chinese vessels take all the fish and drive the native Philippine fishermen out.

@@Panamenya I would say this is in the short to medium term. Now while I'm not denying the current problem and predicament right now, but similar to Africa, we have the potential to boom similar to the continent. Similar to how there are Africans in most if not all countries taking over the jobs of underpopulated Europeans and Asians like Japan and Korea, the Filipinos are also doing the same.

I'm in the firm belief just like how markets are cyclical in nature (ie. There will be bull markets and bear markets) a nation's progress is also cyclical in nature. We have yet to see the Philippines's golden age. And similar to Africa, in about 20 years from now, we would see millions of Filipinos entering the labor force, more than any first world country as of today's statistics.

The world already depends on Africa and has done so for years. Only difference is media won't tell you that but the aware Africans know this. Africa has been the gift that keeps giving for ever

Africa is growing and will grow in power and influence… let’s get them to enact the same policies that reduced our birth rates. Sounds like a great plan, or leave them and their culture alone

I am a child of the 0 population growth ideology, and remain true to it. Humanity's problem is that there are too many of us. If Africa will increase its population without education and without allaying ethnic and political conflicts in general, the population increase in Africa is a formula for disaster. On the other hand, it looks like China is taking advantage of this situation, as they are penetrating Africa and its presence is increasing every day.

@@sarah.sonninem the truth is that we are in the same boat called Earth.

Right. This idiot ignored all of that

What happened in other parts of the world was they stopped having 8-10 children because they had foresight and planning for the future. It's not a fertility issue in Africa, it's an issue of lack of planning or caring about the future. You can't have children without really having a solid plan with them in the future. This really demonstrates why they didn't develop technologically before Europeans came in and unfortunately cruely exploited them. It's this attitude of not planning. How the hell can you have 10 children on average. That is a mess waiting to happen by people incapable of planning for the future.

You realise that Europeans had 10-12 children in the early to mid 1900s, with even a population boom in the 60s. It was only when the world started modernising that people were more reluctant in being full time mothers and such. Africa is just poor Poor people make a lot of babies. It took China 40 years in development for them to start not having children. The same will happen with Africa. If it becomes better, no one will want more children probably

It's called the "Orchid Effect". There are TOO MANY GREEDY PEOPLE WITH GUNS AND MALEVOLENT INTENTIONS ON THE PLANET. Africa's population is increasing IN SPITE OF eugenic-like policies' instituted by Western countries across the continent. What YOU should really be concerned about is WHY YOUR viable sperm counts have fallen 47% over the past 25 years and continue to drop annually, even though you supposedly have the most resources. Banning abortion and sponsoring Constant Warfare won't get your birthrates above 2.1. Maybe the 'biblical scale starvation' you and other practitioners of Collective Antipathy foresee, and planned for, is a case of Manifest Destiny or, as the glaciers rapidly melt, methane levels rise to near self-sterilizing levels, and Magnetic North returns to its location before the start of the Younger Dryas, near Hudson Bay, precisely the 'Destiny That You Have Manifested'.

Has VisualPolitik EN heard of Charter Cities Podcast?

As an African leaving abroad, I must tell you that your forecast is wrong! More and more people nowadays are not interested in having too many children, that I can guarantee you! Also the problem with these forecast is that most of them are not done properly in my opinion! People here saying África need more educated people? Of course, but it might not be as bad as yous might think. There is something happening under your nose and you are not even seeing! Most of us, young people, we are going abroad to study and we end up staying abroad! The amount of African in Europe working side by side with European in all areas is growing every day, and the middle class as well! None of these forecast or comments make sense to me!

With climate change getting worse and the world running out of fossil fuels- it is entirely not certain that Africa would be able to feed and employ so many people. and with the internet, AI, and robots taking over the world- an aging population might not be so bad for the developed world.
