Population ages 15-19, female (% of female population)

This indicator reflects the proportion of young females aged 15 to 19 within the entire female demographic, providing valuable insights into the youth segment of a population. It serves as a crucial metric for understanding the reproductive age dynamics, educational needs, and potential labor force participation of women in this age group. By examining this percentage, policymakers and researchers can gauge trends in youth empowerment, access to education, and health services, which are vital for fostering gender equality and addressing issues such as early marriage or pregnancy. Additionally, higher representations can indicate a growing youth population, which has implications for future economic development and social support systems in a given region. Source:
