Arak - The head of Arak University of Medical Sciences said: 133 cases out of 236 legal duties in the field of youth of the population, equivalent to 59%, are the responsibility of the universities of medical sciences.

According to Mehr reporter, Javad Nazari said before noon on Monday at the conference on the youth of the population and childbearing in Central Province: Considering the low fertility rate in Central Province and the limited opportunity to benefit from the population window, increasing childbearing requires removing economic obstacles, facilitating marriage of young people and strengthening hope for the future.

He added: "The University of Medical Sciences and the health and treatment complex have an important responsibility in the implementation of population youth policies, and many programs are being implemented in this field."

Nazari stated: Out of a total of 236 legal tasks related to the youth of the population, about 133 tasks equivalent to 59% are the responsibility of universities of medical sciences, which shows the important role of this group in realizing the demographic goals of the country.

Pointing to the implementation of programs such as the Hadian Life Plan, the Charter of the Dignity of Pregnant Mothers, the Self Plan, and counseling related to marriage and childbearing, he said: Health and medical workers are working to increase awareness and strengthen the desire to have children by training, counseling, and supporting families.

The president of Arak University of Medical Sciences emphasized: economic issues, youth employment, marriage and childbearing expenses, and worries about the future are among the obstacles that must be overcome with the cooperation of governorates, governorates, municipalities, cultural and social institutions, and support organizations.

He added: the insecurity of cars and roads and the weakness of traffic education cause the loss of a part of the young and reproductive age population; Therefore, improving the safety of roads and cars should also be considered in the framework of population preservation policies.

Emphasizing that the country's demographic opportunity is decreasing, Nazari stated: Achieving a total fertility rate of 2.5 children requires the joint determination of officials and the participation of all institutions to facilitate marriage, support families, reduce childbearing costs, and increase youth's hope for the future.
