意味（1）

(demography) A demographic pattern where a high proportion of the population (of a country etc.) consists of children and young adults (usually between around 15 to 25 years of age).

A particular demographic challenge, widespread across India but particularly concentrated in poorer northern states, is that of the “youth bulge”. The median age of an Indian is 29 and the country is grappling with a vast, ambitious and increasingly restless young population, the majority of whom are unskilled, and for whom there are not enough schools, universities, training programmes and most of all, not enough jobs.
