Analysis# Mozambique Population Analysis
Mozambique's population of 34.6 million ranks 46th globally and has grown 34.29% over the past decade, translating to an average annual growth rate of approximately 3.0%. The 1990s peak growth period reflects recovery from the 1977–1992 civil war, after which fertility rates remained elevated despite subsequent economic development. At current growth trajectories, the population is on pace to exceed 46 million by 2034, driven primarily by a median age of 17.3 years and a total fertility rate of 4.4 children per woman.
