Selected age groups as shares of the population; percent, 2020.
Population aged 0–14 in Burkina Faso covers 2020 on a % of population basis. The comparison uses 2 observations from UN population series. Children aged 0–14 accounted for 44.4% of the population in 2020, while people aged 65 or older accounted for 2.4%. The two selected age groups are a contrast and do not form a complete population composition.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Aged 0–14 | 44.4% | 2020 |
| 2 | Aged 65+ | 2.4% | 2020 |

Evidence: Supports the published values, periods and status labels used for population aged 0–14 in Burkina Faso.
Ages 15–64 are deliberately omitted because the page is a youth-versus-old-age benchmark, not a full age distribution.
The statistic uses the published under-15 share and the 65+ share stated in the same source note, with total population as the denominator.
All directly compared values are kept on the source, period and unit basis stated in their rows; mixed-status or mixed-denominator support metrics are explicitly separated.
