The DTM does not take into account migration which is a huge determinant of population growth. It neglects varying factors within a country which influence death and death rates but Using the Demographic Transition Model, demographers can better understand a country's current population growth based on its placement within one of five stages and then pass on that data to be used for addressing economic and social policies within a country and across nations.
