The article considers the main tasks of the demographic development of Kazakhstan in recent years in connection with the level of social policy development . The issue of the effectiveness of social policy is particularly important for Kazakhstan, which is associated with the inevitability of population aging and the rapid increase in the burden on the ablebodied population , as well as a decrease in the number of young people and the number of women at the peak of fertility . This entails a decrease in the population in the future . The purpose of this article is to develop social policy mechanisms to improve the demographic situation in the country . The development of social infrastructure — education , healthcare , culture , sports , and other similar systems — could improve the demographic situation in Kazakhstan. The research method is a systematic and integrated approach that can develop recommendations in social policy to increase the population . The results of the study cover recommendations for social services and the development of social infrastructure . The theoretical significance of the study lies in the use of this material in textbooks , and the practical significance lies in the use of recommendations by authorities .
