This course examines the demographic and cultural features of human populations and their implications for planning and development. It covers population size, distribution, density, growth, age and sex composition, migration patterns, ethnicity, language, religion, traditions, and cultural values. Students learn how demographic trends and cultural characteristics influence social behavior, resource allocation, urban development, and policy formulation, enabling planners to make informed decisions that reflect the needs and diversity of communities.
