The World Fertility Report 2015, the sixth in a series, complements and supplements previous publications by providing a more comprehensive overview of the estimates and projections of fertility levels and trends with a particular focus on changes of fertility levels from 1970-1975 to 2010-2015, and on fertility projections from 2010-2015 to 2045-2050. More emphasis than before is given in this report to the analysis of fertility transitions. The discussion of changes in fertility and age patterns of childbearing at the regional level and for individual countries is supplemented with an extensive set of annex plots.
