United Nations World Population Prospects (UNWPP) 2019 Revision [Draft]

UNWPP is a publicly available dataset which contains demographic estimates and projections for almost all countries in the world. This includes population data, fertility data, mortality data, migration data, and annual and single age data.

For the VIMC project, Wes has created an interpolated version of national-level UNWPP projections up to 2100, using 1-year age groups (not 5-year groups). Wes has also used UNWPP to create equivalent datasets for small countries not included in UNWPP (Tuvalu, Marshall Islands, Kosovo).
