Global fertility in 204 countries and territories, 1950–2021, with forecasts to 2100: a comprehensive demographic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 by Bhattacharjee, NV, Schumacher, AE, Aali, A, Almidani, O, Bandyopadhyay, S, Graham, SM, Lacey, BWH, Maude, RJ, Runghien, T, Rodriguez, JAB

“…The share of livebirths was projected to decline between 2021 and 2100 in most of the six other super-regions—decreasing, for example, in south Asia from 24·8% (23·7–25·8) in 2021 to 16·7% (14·3–19·1) in 2050 and 7·1% (4·4–10·1) in 2100—but was forecast to increase modestly in the north Africa and Middle East and high-income super-regions. Forecast estimates for the alternative combined scenario suggest that meeting SDG targets for education and contraceptive met need, as well as implementing pro-natal policies, would result in global TFRs of 1·65 (1·40–1·92) in 2050 and 1·62 (1·35–1·95) in 2100. …”

Tsewang Norbu NGB by Cantwell, C, Mayer, R

“…</p><p> </p><p>Before the Chinese invasion of the mid-twentieth century, numerous hand-written manuscript editions were preserved with reverence in monasteries throughout Tibet, as living embodiments of the rNying ma pa tantric dharma; sadly, it may be that none have survived the destructions following the invasion and the subsequent Cultural Revolution.3 Amazingly, however, the wood-blocks for the single xylograph printed edition of the collection (originally made in sDe dge in the late eighteenth century) did survive, and this edition is now being widely reprinted in Tibet.4</p> <p>With the exception of the sDe dge xylograph from East Tibet, all other currently available editions of the rNying ma'i rgyud 'bum, including the Rig 'dzin Tshe dbang nor bu edition, seem to derive from the Himalayan and Southern Tibetan border areas. …”
