2.1 Test: Dynamic Diagrams
If you click a specific country a persistent label will allow you to track its evolution.
If you want to play with the chart click on it to go to the published spreadsheet or follow this link. [Update: you could play with the chart directly in the post but I was getting some problems with Microsoft Explorer so I decided to remove it.]
If you are not familiar with the demographic concepts, this is what you need to know to understand the chart:
- Old dependency ratio: ratio between population 65+ years old / adult population (15-64 yeas old);
- Young dependency ratio: ratio between population 0-14 years old / adult population (15-64 yeas old);
- Total dependency ratio is the sum of the above two.
