Registered Charity No: 1114109 (England & Wales).

Population Matters is one of the world’s foremost population charities. We encourage an open and fair debate about population growth and our collective impact on Earth, and promote positive, non-coercive solutions to enable a better future for people and the planet.

Why does population matter?

Population growth is one of the most important, but often neglected, contributors to many of the major problems we’re experiencing: environmental threats, poverty, conflict, resource depletion and a poorer quality of life for many people – especially women and girls.

What’s the solution?

We promote positive, practical, ethical solutions: encouraging and enabling smaller families throughout the world and inspiring people who already have enough to consume more sustainably. Our aim is to enable everyone to enjoy an equal, decent quality of life whilst we respect and sustain the natural ecosystems upon which life on Earth depends.

The ultimate gift

A gift in your will would help to keep population on the agenda, beyond your lifetime. Your gift will help to promote the benefits of choosing a smaller family, and support policy-makers to include choice-based family planning in global strategies that will help save our planet and humanity’s future.

Please consider leaving the ultimate legacy, through Population Matters.
