The Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 (GBD 2017), coordinated by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), estimated the burden of diseases, injuries, and risk factors for 195 countries and territories, and at the subnational level for a subset of countries.

Annual population estimates by single year of age and sex for 1950-2017 are available here. Annual age-specific fertility rate (ASFR) estimates by 5-year age groups in the 10-54 year range for 1950-2017 are available here. Available for download in this record, via the “Files” tab above, are select tables published in The Lancet in November 2018 in "Population and fertility by age and sex for 195 countries and territories, 1950–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease 2017.”
