Decision taken to boost the country's falling birth rate
According to Chinese media, the government has called on colleges and universities to introduce love education in a bid to boost the country's falling birth rate. So that college students can prevent the decline in fertility. In November, China's State Council urged local governments to combat population decline by promoting childbearing and marriage at appropriate ages.
Chinese people are aging rapidly
Universities have been asked to encourage population growth by educating students on national demography, contemporary perspectives on marriage and family planning. Let us tell you that for the second consecutive year in 2023, there has been a decline in population in the country. Despite being the world's second most populous country with approximately 1.4 billion people, China's population is aging rapidly.
