Abstract

The objective of this paper is to present some preliminary results on the projections of Kenya's rural and urban population under present trends (base run) and varying assumptions (scenarios 1 to 6) of fertility, mortality and migration. The methodology of multiregional demography is applied to this two region system. The advantage of this approach is that rural and urban populations can be projected simultaneously, as part of an interconnected two-region system.
