Maghreb's demographic shift due to childfree choice
The campaign of declining birth rates in the Maghreb region continues, with Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco experiencing an unprecedented decrease in birth rates. This trend is driven by economic and social factors such as delayed marriage, rising divorce rates, late entry into education and work, as well as increased professional ambitions among women and economic pressures. It is expected that this decline will persist in the long term, with Tunisia recording the lowest fertility rate at 1.58 children per woman in 2023, and projections suggesting it will be 1.53 in 2024. Morocco's rate stands at 1.97, while Algeria's is 2.61. Experts believe these shifts reflect profound changes in lifestyles and societal structures.
