Population Studies: Population and Development

Development means an improvement in one’s quality of life. Four factors comprise quality of life: physical, social, economic, and psychological.
This concept remains broad. In developing countries, they define development when there is a presence high local food supply, electricity in remote areas, and high literacy rates.

This ​GCSE Population Studies module introduces population and development to your students, explaining:

  • ​What are the different development indicators?
  • What are the causes and impacts of uneven development?
  • In what ways are inequalities between and within countries evident?
  • What are the ways to reduce the global development gap?
  • What are top-down growth and bottom-up development projects?
  • How do population pyramids of MEDCs and LEDCs differ?
