Mathematics & Statistics
Spanish term or phrase: Tasa de juventud
A text talking about the socio-economic factors of a Spanish region:

Entre 1996-2006 la población de Urdaibai ha aumentado un 1,6%, aunque existe un alto Índice de envejecimiento y una baja Tasa de juventud (8,8%).

Is "tasa de juventud" the same as the birth rate? Thats what is normally used in contrast to the rate of aging

birth rate/proportion of juveniles


Explanation:
You are probably right, the term may refer to birth rate. However, it is also possible that they mean the proportion of persons under a certain age (18 or 21).

It might be best to check with the authors, since more than one interpretation is possible.
