🇸🇿 Eswatini briefing

Why it matters, neighbors, workers versus retirees. Generate a draft, write it yourself, then expand or edit any paragraph.

A memo you can forward: why fertility matters, how this country compares with its neighbors, and how many working-age people versus retirees the pyramid already implies. Tick sections, park each chart next to the paragraph it belongs with, then generate — or start from blank headings and write it yourself. After that, every heading and paragraph is editable, and Expand / Tighten / Ask AI can rewrite one section at a time.

National fertility, age structure, and migration set the size of the next workforce and the next electorate.

This briefing will cover

  • Period TFR versus replacement (~2.1) is the first number — then who is having the children, if an official split exists.
  • Neighbors on the same World Bank series are the “ah, they have X children” chart.
  • 2040 workers are mostly already born; TFR shows up around 2060. Who works, retirement age, and migration move 2040.
  • Family policy elsewhere (France, Hungary, Korea) has not returned a high-income country to replacement in recent decades.

Working-age counts are modeled from today’s pyramid. 2040 taxpayers are mostly already born; TFR shows up around 2060.
