    Angola has a rapidly growing population with high birth rates and low life expectancy. The population pyramid shows a large youth population with high percentages of young dependents compared to the working population. Life expectancy is low at around 55 years due to lack of healthcare access and infrastructure as well as diseases like HIV/AIDS and malaria. Education rates are improving but remain low, especially for women. The economy relies heavily on oil but corruption and inequality mean low incomes averaging $7,300 per capita. Overall human development is hampered by poverty, health issues, and lack of opportunities.

    POPULATION PYRAMID

    OF ANGOLA
     Population pyramid often contains continuous stacked-histogram bars. The population
    size is depicted on the x-axis (horizontal) and age groups on y-axis (vertical).

     Male are on the left side and female on the right, and can be measured by raw number or
    as a percentage of the total population.

     In this population pyramid, it presents the country of Angola with a population of

    ranks so low, we should first look to
    Income
    per the metrics of the HDI and apply

    them to the current situation in
    Angola.
    LIFE Expectancy
    On the matter of life expectancy, Angola
    consistently ranks among the lowest in the
    world* with an average life expectancy at
    birth of 55.63 years. Among males, the
    number is 54.49 years, and among females,
    it's 56.84. So currently, life expectancy
    remains very low in the country, and can be
    attributed to a lack of investment in
    healthcare, sanitation, and infrastructure.

    HealthCare
    In 2013, Angola spent 3.8% of its GDP on health
    care, and continues to have low accessibility of
    healthcare and treatment. Angola only has 0.17 85%
    doctors per 1,000 people and 0.8 hospital beds
    per 1,000 people. In addition, only around half of 60%
    55%
    the country has access to clean drinking water
    40%
    and improved sanitation conditions, and the risk
    of infectious disease remains high. All these
    factors contribute to Angola's low life expectancy,
    and thus a low HDI.
    EDUCATION
    On the matter of education, Angola's total literacy rate is
    71.1%, with males over 15 having an 82% literacy rate but
    only 60.7% with women. When it comes to schooling, the
    average number of years of education is 11, with 14 for males
    and 9 for females. While Angola's education rates are higher
    than other countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, it still isn't
    indicative of higher development in the country. Angola will
    have to prioritize increasing educational opportunities,
    especially for women, as well as building education
    infrastructure like schools.
    ECONOMY AND INCOME
    On the matter of income, Angola's economy is heavily

    The country faces a variety of socioeco-
    nomic problems, including poverty, high
    maternal and child mortality, illiteracy,
    CONCLUSION
    and unemployment. The youthful
    population - about 45% are under the
    age of 15 - is expected to continue
    growing rapidly with a fertility rate of
    more than 5 children per woman and a
    low rate of contraceptive use. Fewer
    than half of women deliver their babies
    with the assistance of trained health
    care personnel, which contributes to
    Angola's high maternal mortality rate.
