China is facing a significant population decline issue.
The population has been shrinking for several years, with the fertility rate falling well below the replacement level of 2.1 births per woman. This decline is attributed to factors like the legacy of the one-child policy, rising living costs, and changing societal attitudes among younger generations.The Chinese government has introduced various measures to address this challenge. These include:
Policy Changes: The one-child policy was relaxed to allow two children in 2016 and three children in 2021.
Financial Incentives: Subsidies for childbirth, housing support, and increased borrowing limits for families with multiple children.
Childcare Support: Establishing childcare service centers and expanding maternity insurance to include flexible and rural workers.
Healthcare Improvements: Covering labor pain relief and assisted reproductive technologies under medical insurance.
