IB Geo (New Syllabus): Help?

[ameatypie]

Can anybody instruct me on where to find resources for the New IB Geo syllabus with the first exam in nov 2011? In particular, I need a list of definitions for the populations in transition unit, if anybody could provide information or ideas on where to get this that would be great Thanks

What 'populations in transitions' covers

Population change: Trends in population and patterns in fertility, as well as mortality, in contrasting regions of the world. Population pyramids. Population momentum and its impact on population projects.

Responses to high and low fertility: dependency and ageing ratios. the impacts of youthful and ageing populations. examples of pro-natalist and anti-natalist policies.

Movement responses- migration: forced and voluntary migrations. internal and international migration in terms of geographic (socio-economic, political and environmental) impacts at origins and destinations.

Gender and change: gender inequalities in culture, status, education, birth ratios, health, employment, empowerment, life expenctancy, family size, migration, legal rights and land tenure.

That's about it.
