According to the organization’s biennial World Population Prospects report, the global population is projected to grow from 8.2 billion in 2024 to peak at around 10.3 billion in the mid-2080’s.
It is then expected to gradually decline to 10.2 billion by 2100, which is 6% lower than anticipated a decade ago.
The UN in 2022 had reportedly estimated the world population would peak at 10.4 billion by the 2080’s.
