?Most of the factors that can reduce the rate of growth of a population are focused on women. Why is this the case? In what general ways are men involved in decisions on reproduction and population change?

Fill in the blank(s) with the appropriate word(s).


This is somewhat subjective. Studies show that addressing the needs of women works to reduce population growth. The manner in which this is accomplished is also clear. It is a fact that in most societies men are the primary leaders. As such, they have provided for their own care, education, and advancement. Women have most often been left out of the benefits of society and therefore must be the focus of efforts to reduce population growth.
