Annual percentage change in population size
Belarus passed its population peak 32 years ago in 1993, and has since declined by 12.1%. The sex ratio of 87 males per 100 females is notably lower than the global average of ~101. The population is aging rapidly—median age will rise from 41 to 48 by 2050. Looking ahead, UN projections show the population falling to 4.4M by 2100—less than half of today's level.
