According to the operational data of the Bureau of national statistics of the agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan for Strategic Planning and reforms as of November 14, 2023, the population of Kazakhstan was 20,000,000 people. Despite the fact that in recent years there has been an increase in this indicator, it is impossible to neglect the presence of certain demographic problems in the country. Kazakhstan ranks 61st among 242 countries in the world population ranking. In turn, given the fact that the population density in the country is 7.3 people per 1 km2, experts say that in order to reach correspondence between the number of population and the size of the territory, it is necessary that this indicator is increased by no less than two times. Taking into account the fact that the average annual population growth in the Republic of Kazakhstan is 1.2–1.3%, it will take more than 70 years for the population to double. The main indicators that affect the demographic situation in the country include the population, its composition, birth and death rates, marriage and divorce rates, and migration conditions. In this regard, we consider it important to thoroughly study these indicators and, on the basis of this, take measures aimed at optimizing the demographic situation in the country. The purpose of the article is to develop suggestions for increasing the population of the country based on an in – depth analysis of the demographic situation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, including the gender aspect.
