Population projections give a picture of how the size and structure of the population by gender and age could look like in the future. Starting from the base population, which represents the estimated number of inhabitants by age and sex in the census year, and given assumptions about future movements of the components of demographic change (fertility, mortality and migration), projections are calculated for the future thirty-year period after the census.
