The Role of Education and Skills in Increasing Women's Participation in Population Policy

Women’s participation in population policy has an important role to play in achieving the sustainable development goals. Education and skills are key factors influencing women’s participation rates in population policy. This study aims to explore the role of education and skills in increasing women’s participation in population policy and analyze its impact on sustainable development. This research method uses a qualitative approach by conducting a literature review and analysis of relevant population policies as well as several interviews. Data collection is carried out through literature studies, government reports, and related policy documents. The results show that education has an important role in increasing access to information and knowledge needed in decision-making related to population policy. In addition, education also provides the skills and abilities needed to be actively involved in the process of planning and implementing population policy. In addition to education, skills also have a significant role in increasing women’s participation in population policy. Effective communication and leadership are essential in influencing the successful implementation of population policy. Therefore, education and skills have an important role in increasing women’s participation in the population policy. To achieve sustainable development, it is important to strengthen the efforts to improve women’s access to relevant education and skills training, and strong and inclusive policy support measures also need to be provided to encourage women’s participation in decision-making related to population policy.

Population census in Bosnia and Herzegovina: Between political interests and unfavorable demographic processes

The last population census in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2013 is an extremely important report, not only for obvious reasons but also because it is the first census conducted after 22 years and the single census conducted in the 21st century so far. Although the 2013 census, like the previous one from 1991, was under the pressure of political events and interests at the time, it still allows an analysis of the number of inhabitants in a certain territory, as well as certain structural characteristics of the population. The consequences of the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina had a significant impact on the results of the census due to the migration of the population caused by the war, as well as due to war victims. The statistical system in Bosnia and Herzegovina is complex. Each entity has its own statistical office (Th? Institute for Statistics of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Srpska Institute of Statistics). At the state level, there is the Agency for Statistics of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BHAS). The procedure of population census and data processing until the publication of the results was followed by a series of irregularities and issues. According to the final census results of the BHAS, Bosnia and Herzegovina had 3,531,159 inhabitants, Republic of Srpska 1,228,423 (or 1,170,342 according to the Republic of Srpska Institute of Statistics), Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina 2,219,220 inhabitants, and Brcko District 83,516. Based on the results of the 2013 census, unfavorable demographic processes are evident - a decrease in the number of the population, the decreasing number of births, the increase in the number of deaths, the accelerated aging process, and the constant emigration of the young working-ageand reproductive population. Depopulation processes have covered almost the entire territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina, thus in addition to the need for a new population census, the implementation of population policy is set as an imperative for political decision-makers. In most EU countries, the 2021 census has already been carried out, while in Bosnia and Herzegovina there is still no official proposal for a new population census, nor the census is included in the state budget for 2023. Although the population census is one of the most important sources of data that is needed for the realization of various socio-economic and development strategies, as well as scientific research, there is still not enough attention from the authorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina to put this issue on the agenda. Though the accurate data on the total and individual structures of the population is a prerequisite for European integration, it is evident that the new population census in Bosnia and Herzegovina will still be conducted when the state authorities decide to do so, more precisely - when opposite political views are brought together.

The Influence of Population Policy Implementation and Service Quality on Community Satisfaction in Making Electronic ID Cards at the Badung Civil Registry Office

This research aims to determine the impact of population policy implementation and service quality on community satisfaction in making electronic ID cards. This research uses quantitative research methods with a causality research design. The sample taken was 100 respondents with the sampling technique in this research being accidental sampling. The analysis technique for this research uses descriptive analysis. The results of the research show that the implementation of population policy has an influence on the satisfaction of applicants for making Electronic KTPs at the Population and Civil Registration Service of Badung Regency, the quality of service has an influence on the satisfaction of applicants for making Electronic KTPs at the Population and Civil Registration Service of Badung Regency and the implementation of population policy and service quality has an effect of 64 .1%, to the satisfaction of applicants for making Electronic KTPs at the Badung Regency Population and Civil Registration Service. This can be an input for the leaders and employees of the Badung Civil Registry Office to continue to innovate in providing better services by providing more detailed attention and explanations to applicants who they feel do not understand.

Parity Progression Ratio Dynamics, Determinants, and Policy Approaches: A Study in Isfahan in 2020

Background and aims: The fertility trend in Isfahan, as in other parts of the country, has decreased significantly in recent years. This study aimed to investigate the parity progression ratio (PPR) and factors affecting fertility. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study that was conducted using a researcher-made questionnaire. Moreover, the study method was a survey, and the sample size included 662 married women aged 15 to 49 years. The study also employed a multi-stage cluster sampling method. Results: The results revealed that the cumulative fertility rate ((CFR=1.5) has decreased in Isfahan. There was also a significant relationship between the number of children with abortion (P=0.001), education (P=0.000), and employment of women (P=0.02). The results of multivariate regression with the control of women’s job type also indicated that the variables of the age of marriage and literacy of women (r=0.355, P<0.05) in householders, age of marriage (r=0.286, P=0.00) in unemployed, and literacy of women (r=0.336, P=0.016) in employed women have the highest explanation in childbearing. Conclusion: To increase fertility and childbearing, more attention should be paid to economic issues, inflation reduction, and employment rise so that we can witness an increase in marriage, followed by childbearing to the level of succession. The best way to maintain the level of substitution is the full and comprehensive implementation of population policies and the implementation of adaptive policies appropriate to the level of fertility.

Geographical characteristics of the distribution of the population of the Kosanica region - correlation with the development of tourism

The goal of this research is the analysis of the geographical features of the population distribution of the Kosanica settlement. The centre of the analysis is the geographical area of the Kosanica region and the changes in the demographic structure of the settlement caused by two socio-economic processes: economic emigration to the city centre of Kursumlija, or to the larger city centres of Serbia on the one hand, and on the other hand a diametrically opposite process - the development of tourism in spa settlements. Population projections are related to the implementation of population policy, that is accepting the inevitable situation, changing what can be changed, which means changing the demographic dynamics and trends in order to harmonize with the expected socio-economic processes. In the conclusion of this work the author predicts a moderate growth in spa settlements and stable fertility to a level that, as a minimum, ensures population renewal through the development of tourism, while in other rural settlements and in the city centre of Kursumlija, the demographic structure of the population is getting worse.

Implementasi Kebijakan Penataan Kependudukan dalam Penonaktifan Data Kependudukan di Kota Padang Panjang

Population data is an important pillar by the government in distributing community welfare programs. There is still a lack of awareness of non-domicile residents who are registered as permanent residents of the city of Padang Panjang and have a Family Card as well as the difficulty of collecting data on non-domicile residents in the covid-19 era. Thus hindering the implementation of Padang Panjang Perwako. No. 65 of 2020 concerning population structuring in the city of Padang Panjang which has the consequence of deactivating population data. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze the processes, efforts and constraints of the implementation of population policies in deactivating population data in the city of Padang Panjang. The research method used is descriptive qualitative method with MDAP data analysis techniques. The results of the study explain that population structuring policies are still not fully effective due to uneven policy socialization, lack of RT commitment to policies, and difficulty in verifying the existence of non-domicile residents.

Использование базы данных ООН в изучении политики стран в области внутренней миграции

Настоящий обзор посвящен использованию Базы данных ООН о политике в области населения для исследований политики, касающейся внутренних миграций. Такие миграции более масштабны и, возможно, даже более значимы для экономического, политического, социального и культурного развития общества, чем внешние. Несмотря на то, что многие государства в той или иной степени реализуют (или реализовали в прошлом) меры политики, относящейся к внутренним миграциям, она не всегда выделяется в качестве самостоятельной, а является составной частью других видов политики. В целях обобщения опыта разных стран, проведения международных сопоставлений, определения региональных и глобальных тенденций в реализации политики в сфере внутренней миграции можно использовать Базу данных о политике в области населения. База данных содержит регулярно актуализируемую информацию о ситуации и тенденциях реализации политики в области населения для всех государств-членов ООН и некоторых других территорий. Основным источником информации служат официальные ответы правительств стран и территорий на регулярно рассылаемые опросники Отдела народонаселения ООН. База данных предоставляет доступ к информации о политике в области народонаселения, отдельным демографическим и социально-экономическим индикаторам с 1976 по 2015 г. Веб-интерфейс позволяет составлять картосхемы и графики, скачивать массивы данных о проводимой политике в табличном формате, а также содержит разделы с последними публикациями, в которых используется база данных и полезные ссылки (включая ссылки на другие базы данных по народонаселению). Вместе с тем следует отметить недостаточное раскрытие потенциала базы данных по политике в области населения в отечественных исследованиях внутренней миграции.

Ghana’s Population Policy Implementation: Past, Present and Future

The effective implementation of population policies is critical in addressing development challenges particularly for developing countries. Ghana’s experience at population policy implementation spans a period over four decades. There have been successes, failures and challenges as new issues which hitherto were non-existent at the inception of the policy, emerge in the course of implementation. This paper assesses Ghana’s efforts at implementing its national population policy and brings out deep insights on lessons learnt and makes proposals for the way forward. The assessment shows that while some successes have been achieved in the area of fertility transition, increasing life expectancy at birth, etc., there are still critical challenges which are socio cultural and political in character. Institutional structures for coordinating the implementation are undermined by poor resource in-flow from the state resulting in loss of trained human resources for effective implementation. The functional integration of population variables into development planning at the district level is consequently virtually non-existent. It is, therefore, just not enough to have a population policy as a document if the state does not attach the highest level of importance to population dynamics as a development planning priority in the country.

Проблеми формування «демографічного законодавства» в Україні

Проаналізовано національне законодавство у контексті стратегічних орієнтирів, напрямів державного впливу на процеси демографічного розвитку, впровадження демографічної політики в Україні. Розглянуто низку прийнятих урядом нормативно-правових актів, спрямованих на подолання негативних тенденцій відтворення населення, на зміни демографічної ситуації. Доведено недостатність та недосконалість нормативно-правового забезпечення реалізації демографічної політики. Показано, що наявні нормативно-правові акти не створюють достатньої правової основи для конкретної управлінської чи регулюючої діяльності у цій сфері, оскільки не встановлюють ні предмета державної демографічної політики, ні її суб’єктів та об’єктів, не визначають механізми прийняття і реалізації відповідних рішень, джерела фінансування необхідних заходів та здійснення належного контролю. Обґрунтовується, що їх змістовна наповнюваність зосереджена переважно на подоланні негативних тенденцій окремих демографічних процесів та усуненні їх негативних наслідків, ніж на створенні таких соціально-економічних умов, які б сприяли відтворенню населення більш високої якості в усіх соціальних групах. Доведено, що демографічна політика розглядається як окрема, особлива та специфічна складова соціально-економічної політики, реалізація якої не може впливати на зміни загальної демографічної ситуації. Робиться висновок про необхідність прийняття відповідного закону, чіткого визначення суті, мети, завдань, системи принципів демографічної політики. При цьому демографічна політика має формуватися з її розуміння як особливої спрямованості, демографічної орієнтації соціально-економічної політики держави. Саме такий підхід забезпечуватиме підвищення ефективності державного впливу на процеси відтворення населення, досягнення сталого демографічного розвитку.

Population Policies: An Integrated Approach (Preface to the 2009 Quetelet Symposium on Population Policies)

Population Policies:An Integrated Approach (Preface to the 2009 Quetelet Symposium on Population Policies) Ester L. Rizzi, Catherine Gourbin, and Pau Baizán Background In November 2009 the Research Center on Demography and Societies (Centre de Recherche en Démographie et Societies, Louvain-la-Neuve) organized its 35th Quetelet seminar. The main theme was "Population Policies in Europe and North America." It is in the tradition of Chaire Quetelet seminars to address emerging topics in demography. Of course, the theme of population policies is not new, but it seemed to us and to the colleagues of the Research Center in Louvain that a reformulation of the topic was in progress, and that reflections and propositions were needed. The main theme of the seminar was split into four sub-themes, which were explored and developed over the course of the three-day seminar: 1) the evolution and definition of population policies, 2) migration policies and policies for the integration of migrants, 3) family policies and policies that support fertility, and 4) policies for ageing. Many participants attempted to answer the following critical questions: What are the aims of population policies? How do population policies differ from social policies? Is the efficacy of these policies supported by empirical results? What is the theoretical and ethical background behind these policies? In this paper we summarize and discuss some of the best contributions presented at the 35th Quetelet seminar and stress their contribution to answering the above-mentioned questions. The papers that are summarized below are now part of a special collection1 of papers published in Population Review. Population policies: definitions and ethics When trying to define population policies, one possible "preliminary" definition could be the following: population policies are those policies that affect demographic phenomena such as fertility, migration and ageing or that attempt to adapt societies to their consequences. This definition implies that policies can be active or adaptive. Active population policies can be direct or indirect. In the concluding paper of the special collection, Nico van Nimwegen speaks about how the focus of population policies has shifted over time and argues that population policies in the past that directly attempted to change the course of demographic phenomena, are now, in essence, population-related policies that have socio-economic aims. The new focus becomes particularly evident when referring to the implementation of population policies in the past. At the Chaire Quetelet seminar two contributions, now presented in the special collection, went in this direction: Arianna Caporali and Antonio Golini's paper "Births and Fertility in Interwar Italy: Trends, Images, Policies and Perception" and Frédéric Sandron's study "Réunion in the 1960s and 1970s: A Population Policy Against the Current?" Caporali and Golini point out that the Italian interwar period population policy was part of Mussolini's nationalist objectives and that it took several forms, from financial incentives to penalties for bachelors and emigration. But Mussolini's attempts failed and fertility continued to decline. We could compare the Italian case with France, a well known historical example of pronatalist policies. In France, a persuasive approach was used to convince people that high natality improves the wealth of the nation. This contrasted with the authoritarian approach of the Italian fascist regime presented in Caporali and Golini's paper. In addition, while in Italy population policies were associated with misogyny and racial discrimination, in France the pronatalist argument was combined with a social one: by compensating the cost of children, the policymakers tried to prevent family poverty (Chesnais, 2006). Today, because of the relatively high fertility rate in France, which in 2006 reached two children per woman, France is recognized as an a country that has implemented successful pronatalist policies. The second paper of the special collection, Frédéric Sandron's, "Réunion in the 1960s and 1970s: A Population Policy Against the Current?", also involves direct population policies. Réunion Island's population policy is a peculiar case. Réunion is part of France's territory, but, contrary to metropolitan France, an anti-natalist policy was implemented there. The author explains how debates and charismatic figures led to the conclusion that demographic control was necessary for the socioeconomic...

Meeting the goals of the ICPD Programme of Action: Key challenges and priorities for Asia and the Pacific, fifteen years on

The International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), held at Cairo in 1994, adopted a comprehensive, and in many ways path-breaking, Programme of Action that has led to the reorientation of population policies and programmes worldwide. The Programme of Action called for a rights-based approach to the formulation and implementation of population policies and programmes that would be responsive to individual needs and aspirations.

Spatial Demography: An Opportunity to Improve Policy Making at Diverse Decision Levels

The number of applications of spatial demography has been growing mostly since the 1990s. Ranging from simple visualization to sophisticated spatial analytical techniques, these applications bring a new layer of explanation to demographic phenomena. This paper reviews demographic studies that specifically addressed space with spatial statistical models, and that focused on fertility, mortality, migration, and population models. Additionally, it summarizes different spatial datasets and software freely available, as well as the challenges that exist for the development of spatial demography applications. These challenges include confidentiality issues, scale problems, and the lack of training on spatial analysis in population centers. Although the first and second challenges involve modeling and technical solutions, the latter depends only on demographers’ commitment and willingness to promote change. Several topics for future spatially focused research are also outlined. Finally, the paper makes a strong case regarding the significant contribution that spatial demography can make to the monitoring, evaluation, and implementation of population policies.

Population policy of local self-government: Necessities possibilities and limitation

Taking into consideration the roles it objectively has, the state is also responsible for the formulation and implementation of population policy. In the process of its articulation, population policy of our state, although not explicitly formulated, continual and consistent, went through various phases of development, but was mostly in the shadow of other policies. In order to be successful, population policy has to be local, too. The need for definition and implementation of local population policy is indicated by insufficiency and inefficiency of government measures, knowledge of determinants of reproductive behavior and social processes, especially society democratization and globalization. The possibilities available are not sufficiently used. The attention is focused on the measures of material assistance, which is understandable in present conditions, while the measures of non-material assistance are almost missing. The paper is pointing out the non-material potentials and the necessity of their activation. The paper also contains the results of an empiric research carried out by interviewing the presidents of the population policy committees within municipal assemblies in the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, thus providing the picture of the present situation, and knowledge of their positions, opinions and suggestions for the better use of potentials and overcoming of limitations in population policy.

Institutional Reforms, Population Policy, and Adoption of Children: Some Observations in a North China Village

From my fieldwork in a Hebei village from July 1992 to December 1993 [conducted for a research project on economic reforms and fertility in rural China (see Zhang 1998b)] two distinct patterns of adoption in this particular village can be noted: (1) in contrast to the fact that during the collective period infertile couples primarily adopted children both infertile couples and an increasing number of fertile couples are adopting children in the reform period; (2) rural couples are increasingly willing to adopt girls following the reforms compared to the pre-reform collective period subsequent to 1949 when Chinese Communists took power. The village is not idiosyncratic in any sense. Its economic and population policies production systems cultural norms and values are similar to thousands of other Chinese villages. What was observed in this village may be applied in many other villages as well. The major purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that there may exist a strong nexus linking economic reforms implementation of population policies and adoption of children in the contemporary Chinese rural society.

Algorithms for a projection model of demographic indicators based on generalized age-dependent branching processes

Demographic indicators are not only used extensively to describe the current state of human populations, but they also enter into the formulation and implementation of population policies. Successes and⧸or failures of policies are frequently judged in terms of changes in demographic indicators over time. Using indicators in this way gives rise to a need for a methodology for projecting them over time in terms of basic determinants underlying the demographic evolution of human populations so that prospective population policies may be studied by computer simulation. The basic determinants of population dynamics considered in this paper were mortality, age at marriage, and fertility. The mathematical machinery used to incorporate these determinants into a workable one-sex mathematical system was that of generalized age-dependent branching processes. Given an initial age distribution and stationary law of evolution, algorithms for projecting three classes of indicators in time were developed. Included in the first class were the age distribution and rate of population growth. A second class included indicators of mortality, with specific attention being given to age-specific, crude, and infant death rates. Indicators of fertility made up a third class. Singled out for study were: age-specific birth rates, the total and net fertility rates, and the crude birth rate. Renewal theory was used to develop asymptotic formulas for all indicators considered; many of these formulas will be familiar to students of stable population theory. Some connections between the Leslie matrix and the projection system developed in this paper were also pointed out.
