Geographical Perspectives on Population - GEOP219
Many of the world’s biggest challenges have been triggered by a growing global population. This unit explores the social, economic, political and environmental drivers and implications of population change at multiple scales. The unit explores historical and contemporary fertility and mortality patterns, migration, urbanisation, ageing, Indigenous populations, population-physical environment interactions, and the politics of population. Population challenges in the both the developed and the developing world are covered, with a specific focus on Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.
