what percentage of the world's population is indigenous
Indigenous peoples Precise estimates for the total population of the world's Indigenous peoples are very difficult to compile, given the difficulties in identification and the variances and inadequacies of available census data. The United Nations estimates that there are over 370 million indigenous people living in over 70 countries worldwide.[17] This would equate to just fewer than 6% of the total world population. This includes at least 5000 distinct peoples[18] in over 72 countries.
World population In demographics, the world population is the total number of humans currently living. The world population was estimated to have reached 7.6 billion as of October 2017[1]. The United Nations estimates it will further increase to 11.2 billion by the year 2100.[2]
