• Spread Awareness: People's country must be made aware of the potential benefits of keeping the size of the family relatively small.
• Medical facilities: The use of contraceptives help to keep the population growth low. Thus, these medical facilities must be made easily available.
• Two Child policy: The government must implement the two-child policy to control the population growth. China has been successful in controlling the population growth through the two-child policy.
