Demographic dividend is when a country experiences a change in its population and it has good effects on the country's economy. It usually happens when a lot of young people are entering adulthood and are able to work, so there are more people who can help to make the country stronger. They also usually have fewer kids, so the population grows more slowly or even shrinks, meaning there are fewer mouths to feed, so more money can be put into other things like education or healthcare. The additional income that can be generated from these working people can help the country become more prosperous.
