Population projections by 5-year age group and sex, drawn from Rwanda's Fourth (2012) and Fifth (2022) Population and Housing Censuses. Two projection vintages are stacked via a projection_base_year dimension: the RPHC4 (2012-based) medium-scenario projection covers 2013-2032 at national level, and the RPHC5 (2022-based) medium-scenario projection covers 2022-2052 at national level and 2023-2032 at province level. Source files are Population_Projections.xls (RPHC4, 332 KB, legacy BIFF8) and Population_Projections_2022_Thematic_Report.xls (RPHC5 national, 1.32 MB, legacy BIFF8), plus 5 per-province XLSX files (*_5_yrs_age.xlsx / *_5yrs_agegroup.xlsx, ~13.6 KB each), all direct static downloads from the NISR portal.
