Everything but things that will actually work, i.e. changing the work culture so people have time to have sex and aren't so stressed that they don't want to.

And force companies to pay better salaries. The pay in Japan is fucking bananas bad.

And money. Money and time to take care of children.

The good news is there are already a lot of subsidy programs for people marrying and starting families, and those programs are expanding to include more people and offer more money.

It's not as good as it should be, but it's better than it was a few years ago.

And that fundamentally many women don't want to have children, which plays out in every society where women have some level of rights. In addition, wealthier and more developed nations in general tend to have lower birth rates.
