In which circumstances a country can experience a negative population growth rate?
1 answer
A country can experience a negative population growth rate when there is a decrease in births or an increase in deaths, leading to a decline in the overall population size. This can be caused by factors such as low fertility rates, high infant mortality rates, widespread disease and illness, natural disasters, conflict and war, and inadequate healthcare and access to resources. Additionally, aging populations with lower birth rates and longer life expectancies can also contribute to negative population growth rates.
