Sub Saharan Africa is experiencing rapid population growth. They have very high birth rates because of high desired family size, low levels of use of modern contraceptives, and high levels of adolescent childbearing. They have low death rates because of modern technologies and medicine. Therefore, Sub Saharan Africa has a very high natural increase rate and is therefore experiencing rapid population growth
