Abstract

Population aging is a global problem. This article will research the problem of population aging in China. How to alleviate the aging problem from two aspects, the first aspect is to improve the fertility rate, and the second is from the immigration analysis. The fertility problem is mainly alleviated by improving women’s happiness and reducing the pressure. The immigration problem should mainly consider the elderly’s understanding and acceptance of overseas pensions, the expected overseas pension, etc. It’s can help us to better understand the needs of the elderly and actively build pension services overseas. It should be noted that the problem of the aging population is already a problem of globalization, so immigration cannot fundamentally solve the problem but play a mitigation role. Therefore, the strategy to solve the problem of population aging should focus on increasing the fertility rate. This article will mainly discuss the causes and solutions of the low fertility rate from the perspective of women’s happiness.
