5 In 1952, India was the first country in the world to launch a mass media campaign to spread the concept of family planning in response to population growth. Most developing nations soon followed suit. While individual campaigns have had varying degrees of success, they have made a significant impact overall. According to a World Bank study, the average number of children per woman in the developing world declined by 2.5 children between 1960, when many of the campaigns began in earnest, and 1990, and it has continued to decline.

6 China China's Communist Party first implemented the "one child" rule—perhaps the best-known population policy in the world—in the 1979 amidst growing concerns over whether the famine-prone country could continue to feed its skyrocketing population.

7 China Urban couples can only have one child
Rural couples may have two or possibly more children Around 80% of the population lives in rural areas

8 China Families that violate the rule where it is most strictly enforced face mandatory abortions and severe financial penalties Single-child couples throughout the country are entitled to better child care, preferential housing assignments, and cash bonuses.

9 In this undated poster, China advertises its one-child policy as a means to a "prosperous life."

16 One Child Policy Advantages Disadvantages
Prevented over 400 million births Better education and healthcare Parents spend more time with one child Larger amount of men than women (117 males born to 100 females) Men cannot find wives (24 million men estimated) Can be penalized or fired if you have more than one child Population is living longer creating more seniors to be taken care of

17 India India's population has more than doubled since its family-planning policy went into effect in the 1950s India's total fertility rate has declined by more than 40 percent since the 1960s, and today the average number of children per woman is around three.

18 India Hoping all the young adults entering the workforce will impact the economy

19 India The country's most recent approach to population issues focuses on the advancement of women economically, academically, and socially, as independent women are more likely to have small families. Indian public information campaigns are also working to counter favoritism for boys, a deeply ingrained tradition that drives couples to have more children.

23 Kenya Kenya was the first country in sub-Saharan Africa to view runaway population growth as a serious impediment to economic prosperity Kenya became the first, in the late 1960s, to begin developing a national family-planning campaign.

24 Kenya By all accounts, the country's approach has been successful.
The average number of children per woman has dropped to around four from around eight in the 1980s Contraceptive use has grown from seven percent in 1978 to over 30 percent today. AIDS, which affects one in ten Kenyan adults, is a significant factor in both higher contraceptive use and the lower fertility rate.
