Lots of countries have tried to control population. Currently some, such as Japan, have a deceasing population whilst others are expanding very quickly. The best way to control the number of people on our planet is through education so that individuals can make responsible decisions when it comes to having a family.
Education is the key, and research shows that specifically improving education for women is really important… especially in the developing world. Easy access to contraceptives and education about birth control also reduces population growth.
The best way is to educate, and provide tools for family planning like contraceptives. Understanding cultural stigma on these topics, meaning different communities have different views on relationships and reproduction, is vital also.
