Facts & Figures
ASEAN is home to a young and growing population, characterised by diverse demographic profiles across member states. The region’s population is concentrated in urban areas, with rapid urbanisation posing both opportunities and challenges. The demographic dividend, with a large working-age population, presents a potential for economic growth, while aging populations in some countries necessitate effective policies to address the needs of the elderly. Understanding these population dynamics is crucial for developing appropriate social and economic policies.
