Population projections are scenarios: “If this happens, then that will happen.”
They are not forecasts or predictions.
What ARE Population Projections?
© 2009 Population Reference Bureau. All rights reserved. www.prb.org
The commonly-used United Nations Medium Variant projection assumes that birth rates will decline so that all developing countries will eventually average a European-like 1.85 children per woman.
That assumption is, in turn, dependent upon the additional assumption that the use of family planning will rise to the same level as that in Europe and North America. The UN is very careful to point that out.
How Are Projections Made?

Fertility24. Total fertility rate has persistently remained high at 6.9 children per woman in 2001 and 6.7 in 2006. This is mainly due to cultural and religious beliefs and preference for large families as the source of sustenance especially during oldage. This situation has created a large dependent population, and engendered conditions not favourable for women's reproductive health. Urbanisation, education, higher income and improved decision making within the household are associated with reduced fertility.
Section 24, National Population Policy for Social Transformation and Sustainable Development, Uganda Population Secretariat, 2008
