Answer: Africa

Explanation: Africa has the highest population growth rate as all three subregions growing over 2% are in Africa. Middle Africa has the highest rate of close to 3% followed by Western Africa and Eastern Africa growing over 2%. The population growth rate of Africa (2.45%) continent is almost double of the growth rate of the second fastest-growing continent Oceania (1.27%). Except for Africa and Oceania, the remaining four continents have a growth rate below 1%.
