Abstract
The birth rate of a country is one of the main determinants of population growth. Population growth, a critical component, influences the environment, healthcare system, education system, and overall economy of a country. The following study attempts to identify specific factors that contribute to a country’s birth rate. Within this research, it is found that a higher percentage of women in the workforce will have a significant influence and lead to a lower birth rate.
