Un tableau de bord complet de la population a été mis en ligne sur la Plateforme de données océaniennes pour les 22 États et Territoires insulaires océaniens. Il s’agit d’un outil interactif de visualisation des données, qui permet d’afficher différents indicateurs, graphiques et cartes, et de les filtrer par État ou Territoire.

The Pacific Data Hub has now made available a comprehensive population dashboard for all 22 Pacific Island Countries and Territories.
The dashboard is designed to be an interactive data visualisation tool where users can see various population indicators, charts and maps filterable by country or territory.
Below are two stories taken from the new dashboard.
French Polynesia and Samoa are projected to have a similar population size in the future but show different age compositions.
French Polynesia and Samoa have quite different population pyramids.
Samoa has a smaller proportion of the population aged 70+ (3.4%) whereas French Polynesia’s population aged 70+ is higher (5.2%).
The population pyramid shows that Samoa’s population is concentrated in the younger age groups with 57% of the population younger than 25 years. French Polynesia’s population has 37% younger than 25 years of age.
FIJI’S POPULATION IS PROJECTED TO GROW AT A SLOWER RATE THAN THE POPULATION OF VANUATU.
Vanuatu is expected to continue growing over the period to 2050 whereas Fiji’s population is expected to stabilise over the next two decades.
We encourage you to explore our new population dashboard and take a look at our existing SDG, Maritime Boundaries, Education, Mana and Trade dashboards.
