The government of Japan has responded to its aging population by "encouraging women to both work and raise children"

Explanation:

Japan has the highest aging rate in the world with about a quarter (25%) of its entire population aged 65 and above, and projected to increase to 40% by 2060.

This aging rate suggest that the country's workforce (number of people who are physically able to work and within a specified age range) is shrinking and this can have negative implications for the Japanese economy.

Therefore, the Japanese government has taken certain steps to tackle this issue, some of which include; "using incentives to encourage more women to work", focusing on technological innovation to increase productivity, investing in children education, among others.

While Japan may not be actively encouraging immigration, it looks to be relaxing its restrictive immigration policies.
