The document outlines directions for a paper that examines the impact of the Cairo 1994 population conference on fertility rates through women's education and responsibility, while exploring various cultural viewpoints on birth control. It also discusses the reasons for slower declines in fertility rates relative to population growth and investigates food supply dynamics in relation to increasing populations. Additionally, the document emphasizes the rapid population growth in lower-developed countries and encourages detailed research into food supply issues for both developing and industrialized nations in light of future population increases.

1. MODULE 5
Directions: Using your textbook and at least two additional
resources (Wikipedia sources are not permitted), write a four to
five page paper addressing the following prompts.
Your submission should comply with APA guidelines for
formatting and citations. Be sure to list each resource used at
the end of paper in the reference list section.
Please remember that you may utilize LIRN to help you search
for resources.
You can visit the Academic Resource Center for a guide on how
to utilize LIRN successfully.
Part I:
1.
Explain how the Cairo 1994 Population Conference strategy of
increased women’s responsibility and education will help to
reduce fertility rates.
What sub-issues are also brought forth from this approach?

2. 2.
Interpret and further explain the world arguments for and
against birth control in Section 24. Also try to interpret and
represent different cultures’ and non-western, developing
countries’ viewpoints.
3.
Outline clearly why declining world fertility rates do not reduce
population growth at a parallel rate.
4.
Describe why the concept of population carrying capacity is
difficult to apply to the human population.
5.
Describe the dynamics of food supply for increasing human
populations.
Part II:

3. Explain why population growth is more rapidly growing in the
lower developed countries and will account for most of the new
population by 2025.
Part III:
Using the Internet and other sources, research in more detail
food supply problems for LDC’s and industrialized nations in
view of the next century’s population growth and their national
population growth.
