The purpose of this paper is to analyze the fertility policies of Germany. The fertility policies are related to social structural problems, such as low birthrate, aging population, increased number of women joining the workforce, unstable labor market and family structure, and limit of welfare fund, and they are becoming new social agendas in the process of securing women's labor force to maintain sustainable economic growth and welfare system and achieving various gender equality goals. Therefore, the policies to increase birthrate and enable women to balance work and family life are important tasks for the German society to secure democracy and legitimacy as well as to solve women's problems. This study examines the German solutions for sustainable democracy by focusing on its fertility policies, the way the German government implements family policies and policies to enable women to balance work and family life from a perspective on sustainable family policy for sustainable growth and welfare. This study also examines the changes in the direction and characteristics of gender policies and the paradigm of fertility policies as a result of the government's active intervention.
