Does the world really need more population? As was already stated, allow for immigration into the countries that are waning in population.

The world is well overdue for a very serious plague, so forward-planning on the basis of a large, ageing population is unlikely to be appropriate. I'd adopt social/fiscal policies that favoured small farmers. Strangely enough, the EU does just that; and the CAP, plus the Common Fisheries Policy, plus the Euro are the greatest of its many evils - far greater than its inherent corruption, or its bloated bureacracy.

1. it should encourage couples to have more kids.
2. open up immigration to required workforce - the will pay the bill of aging population!
3. the above applies to all countries with similar problems. younger population have to understand it is the workforce that will fund their pension and choose between #2 and #1.
