The core theme of this report is the analysis of recent population growth and dynamics on Guam. In particular, trends and patterns for fertility, mortality and migration are discussed. The report includes a brief discussion of the likely impacts of some of these dynamics on wider cross-cutting issues such as the environment, health, education and economic activity. Other topics covered are the labor force, military, household composition, education characteristics, disability and poverty. A set of population projections until 2025 are presented to assist planners and policy-makers with scenarios of future population size and structure. The report’s aim is to assist decision-makers to plan effectively for the specific needs of different population groups at different points in time. |
