The United Nations predicts that the world's population will reach 6.2 billion by the year 2000, with the Arab countries, Africa, and Latin America experiencing the fastest growth. They use mathematical and component methods to make these projections, focusing on factors like fertility and mortality rates. Southwest Asia is expected to have the highest growth rate among Arab regions due to immigration, but this trend may change in the future. The UN's projections help governments plan for the future population changes.
