He noted that in 2013 the estimated amount of the world's population amounted to 7.2 billion people, and the majority (82.5 percent) are concentrated in less developed regions.
Thus, in accordance with stripped information projections conducted by the National Population Council (CONAPO), reaffirms this situation, since in 2013 the total fertility rate in Mexico was 2.2 children per woman, while life expectancy 74.5 years increased.
In Mexico, data from the National Survey of Demographic Dynamics (ENADID) 2009, show that only 54.9 percent of sexually active adolescents (ie, they had sex in the last month) used birth control methods.
Such diseases are classified as chronic degenerative, which together account for 37.2 percent of all deaths.
According to the progress of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), between 1990 and 2011 "the maternal mortality ratio was reduced by 51.5 percent, from 88.7 to 43 deaths per 100,000 live births. This represents an improvement of 68.7 percent over the 2015 goal set. "
In turn, the percentage of the population 30 to 59 years increased from 25.5 to 35.7 percent, while the 60 and older goes from 6.2 to 9.5 percent, he added the Institute.
According to population projections made by the Conapo, the relative increase in the population aged 60 or older in Mexico, continue to rise, accounting for 14.8 percent of the total population in 2030 and 21.5 percent in 2050.
According to the National Council for Evaluation of Social Development Policy (Coneval), in 2012, the population aged 60 or older, 43.2 percent suffer from multidimensional poverty.
