  • People who are forced to move, by war, famine, political persecution or natural disaster. (9, 7)
  • People who move for quality of life reasons, usually economic gain. (9, 8)
  • The difference between the birth rate and death rate, usually converted into a percentage. (7, 8)
  • The factors that encourage people to migrate. Push factors are negative factors operating at the area of origin, driving people away. (4, 3, 4, 7)

  • The movement of people between different regions within the same nation. (8, 9)
  • The movement of people motivated by political interests. It may be individuals fleeing from governments with whom they disagree or who threaten their life or livelihood, towards countries with more friendly governments. (9, 9)
  • The number of deaths of children aged up to 12 months per thousand live births. (6, 9)
  • The proportion of people in each age group compared to other groups. (10, 9)
