World Population Prospects Indicator List with Sources (UN Population Division)

unpopulationdataportal/indicators

The indicators offered by the United Nations Population Division's Population Data Portal (World Population Prospects and family planning estimates): for each, the portal's numeric indicator id, name, short name, description, value type, unit labels, whether it is split by age, sex, variant or category, its source with year, span and citation, and its topic. Paged: give a page size (86 indicators in all) and a page number for later pages; the answer reports the total and the page count. A page number past the last page is refused as a validation error. Data from the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division, passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official United Nations product.
