A Optimizing China's Fertility Policies: Strategies Informed by International Practices

This paper mainly discusses how to solve the problem of declining fertility rate in China. On the basis of combing through the current fertility situation in China, it is found that there are problems such as insufficient fertility subsidies, inconsistent standards, employment discrimination for women of childbearing age, backward marriage and childbearing culture in some areas, and imperfect child care system. Some countermeasures were put forward, such as increasing fertility subsidies, unifying subsidy standards, formulating policies to eliminate discrimination against women in employment, building a civilized marriage and childbearing culture, and further improving the child-care system. It is hoped that the financial support and policy incentives provided by the state can reduce the burden of child-rearing.
