The report also stressed that Egypt, about 20 years ago, had an effective system for the family planning process. However, with a population exceeding 104 million people, today Egypt has become the first Arab country in terms of population, the third in Africa and the fourteenth in the world. Its population has reached about 104,086,088 people, according to the statistics of the year 2022, meaning that it is currently suffering from a large population increase that poses a major challenge to the state.
The population issue was discussed in the report by defining the overpopulation, identifying its causes, clarifying its effects on individuals’ access to their various rights, discussing the Egyptian efforts made towards the population increase crisis and presenting some proposals that must be taken into account to solve this big problem.
