Actively responding to population aging, as an important national strategy of China, has a bearing on the overall situation of national development and the well-being of hundreds of millions of people, and is of great significance in promoting social harmony and stability, sustainable economic development, and the maintenance of social equity and justice. China has made a series of progress in coping with population aging. However, under the new situation of continuous deepening of the degree of aging, increasingly significant regional differences, further extension of the life expectancy of the population, continuous improvement of the quality of the elderly population, and development of emerging technologies, China is still faced with new challenges such as unbalanced socio-economic development, negative population growth aggravating the aging process, unhealthy longevity of the elderly population, lack of a sound health care service system, and the "digital divide" among the elderly. In the future, China needs to make further efforts to cope with population aging, including building a birth-friendly support system, improving the health service system, promoting the high-quality development of the social service system for the elderly, pushing forward the reform of the social security system oriented to healthy aging, building a support system for "active aging", pushing forward the high-quality development of the elderly health industry, and promoting engineering science and technology to help innovate services and products for the elderly, and creating a more friendly social environment.
