South American Transition to Low Fertility Spreads to Paraguay
(2010) Paraguay does not seem a likely candidate for rapid fertility decline: The population is poorer, more rural, and has lower educational levels than its neighboring countries.
Children’s Environmental Health: Risks and Remedies
(2002) Overall child mortality declined significantly in the 1990s, but environmental hazards still kill at least 3 million children under age 5 every year.1 Such young children make up roughly 10 percent of the world's population, but comprise more than 40 percent of the population suffering from health problems related to the environment.2

Project: Demography and Economics of Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease
Life Expectancy Gains and Public Programs for the Elderly in Latin America and the Caribbean
Life expectancy in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) has increased dramatically since 1950, largely as a result of medical and public health interventions that sharply cut the death toll from the most virulent infectious diseases and enabled many more children to survive to adulthood.

Program and Policy Implications
Life Expectancy Gains and Public Programs for the Elderly in Latin America and the Caribbean
Life expectancy in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) has increased dramatically since 1950, largely as a result of medical and public health interventions that sharply cut the death toll from the most virulent infectious diseases and enabled many more children to survive to adulthood. Longer lives have combined with lower fertility to produce profound shifts in the age composition of country populations: As people live longer and women have fewer children older people have begun to represent a growing proportion of the total population in the region and children a shrinking share.
The National Institute on Aging (NIA) supports research
that examines the social and economic implications of life
expectancy trends and population aging. This newsletter highlights
the work of NIA-supported researchers and others that
can help policymakers plan for the well-being of aging populations
in LAC countries, as well as offer insights to policymakers
in other low- and middle-income countries.

Project: Combatting Noncommunicable Disease Risk Factors in Youth
Data Sheet Explanation of Cut-Offs: Noncommunicable Diseases in Latin America and the Caribbean
(2013) The four major NCDs—cardiovascular disease, most cancers, diabetes, and chronic respiratory diseases—will account for approximately 81 percent of deaths in Latin America and the Caribbean by 2030, and 89 percent of all deaths in high-income countries.
