It encompasses an extensive territory with many common characteristics and also with significant cultural and socioeconomic differences. Latin America's population is a composite of ancestries and ethnic groups, making the region one of the most diverse in the world. Ethnic composition varies from country to country and includes descendants of Amerindian, European, and African ancestry. Most Latin American countries also have Asian minorities. Europeans and groups with partEuropean heritage make nearly 80 % of the population [1].

In 2012, life expectancy at birth was 77 years; 33 % of the population was 14 years old or younger. By 2020, however, the average age is expected to increase 25 % [2]. The infant mortality rate for the 2009-2013 period is 23/1,000, ranging from 6.2 in Uruguay to 32.8 in Bolivia [3].
