Along with the rest of the UK, Wales’s population is ageing and there is a real chance of population decline, posing significant risks to economic wellbeing. Policy-makers can learn from international evidence on boosting fertility, retaining population and attracting inward migrants.

Between April 2011 and March 2021, the only reason that the population of Wales grew was due to positive net migration of around 55,000 usual residents, from within and beyond the UK.
