TAMBASASAYAMA, JAPAN - FEBRUARY 28: Life-size puppets are erected in the remote village of Ichinono to symbolise the decrease in the local population on February 28, 2025 in Tambasasayama, Japan. Japan's birth rate has fallen to its lowest level in 125 years, according to figures released by the health ministry. In 2024, Japan recorded 720,988 births. Japan's declining birthrate is deeply impacting rural areas and small towns, leading to serious economic and social challenges. Some small villages have already started to disappear, with many abandoned houses, closed school facilities, and closed small businesses, as well as abandoned farmlands.
