The demographics of Togo include ethnicity, population density, education level, economic status and religious affiliation. Togo's population of 7.89 million people is composed of about 21 ethnic groups, the two biggest being the and Ewé in the South ). Dagomba is the first most common language in the north, where other Gur languages such as Mossi and Gourma are found; the ethnic groups of the coastal region Ewe and Gen language, constitute the bulk of the civil servants and merchants, due in part to the former colonial administrations which provided greater infrastructure development in the south. Most of the southern peoples use these two related languages, which are spoken in commercial sectors throughout Togo; the Kabye live on marginal land and traditionally have emigrated south from their home area in the Kara region to seek employment. Their historical means of social advancement has been through the military and law enforcement forces, they continue to dominate these services. Other groups include the Akposso on the Central Plateau, the Ana people who are related to the Yoruba, live in the center of the country, in the strip between Atakpame and Tchamba, the Bassar in the Centre-West, the Tchamba in the Centre-East and the Konkombas around Sokodé, the Lambas in the Kandé region, the Hausa, the Tamberma, the Losso and the Ouachi.

Indians have a presence in Togo. White African settlers descended from the original French and German colonials make up less than 1% of the total population along with Togo's minute Lebanese community; the remaining 99% are indigenous: most people in this category hail from one of thirty-seven different tribes. Population distribution is uneven due to soil and terrain variations; the population is concentrated in the south and along the major north-south highway connecting the coast to the Sahel. Age distribution is uneven. French, the official language, is used in documentation; the public primary schools combine French with Ewe or Kabye as languages of instruction, depending on the region. English is taught in Togolese secondary schools; as a result, many Togolese in the south and along the Ghana border, speak some English. According to the 2019 revision of the World Population Prospects the total population was 7,889,093 in 2018, compared to only 1 395 000 in 1950; the proportion of children below the age of 15 in 2010 was 39.6%, 56.9% was between 15 and 65 years of age, while 3.4% was 65 years or older.

Total Fertility Rate and Crude Birth Rate: Fertility data as of 2013-2014 and 2017: The following demographic statistics of Togo in 2019 are from the World Population Review.

With nearly 60% of its populace under the age of 25 and a high annual growth rate attributed to high fertility, Togo’s population is to continue to expand for the foreseeable future. Reducing fertility, boosting job creation, improving education will be essential to reducing the country’s high poverty rate. In 2008, Togo eliminated primary school enrollment fees, leading to higher enrollment but increased pressure on limited classroom space and materials. Togo has a good chance of achieving universal primary education, but educational quality, the underrepresentation of girls, the low rate of enrollment in secondary and tertiary schools remain concerns.
