Homo sapiens; growth slowing toward a projected peak
Africa · Eastern Africa
Rwanda is recorded at 14.26m people in 2024, with total annual change of +300,439 under the WPP medium variant.
Rwanda observed 2023 population pyramid, grouped into five broad age bands from WPP single-age male and female arrays.
Population identity: births minus deaths plus net migration equals total change within the Record tolerance.
