Population Growth
From the Economic and Social Research Council (ERSC), this briefing provides figures on global population growth and highlights the key issues in population management and the factors that influence fertility rates. Case studies illustrating a number of different approaches to population control around the world are described, including China’s one-child policy, Singapore’s policies to both reduce and increase birth rates, and a range of successful family-friendly policies in France. This resource was developed by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), a part of Research Councils UK (RCUK).
