Child Mortality By Age/Country/Region

Child mortality is one of the most complex challenges ever faced by humanity. Identifying which countries have child mortality issues and showing which countries have adopted best practices in caring for children will be the first step in tackling this challenge.

This dataset includes 24 tables:

1. 6 for newborns (neonatal):

• deaths_number_neonatal.csv
• deaths_number_neonatal_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_number_neonatal_by_region_unicef.csv
• deaths_rates_neonatal.csv
• deaths_rates_neonatal_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_rates_neonatal_by_region_unicef.csv

2. 6 for infants:

• deaths_number_infants.csv
• deaths_number_infants_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_number_infants_by_region_unicef.csv
• deaths_rates_infants.csv
• deaths_rates_infants_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_rates_infants_by_region_unicef.csv

3. 3 for children from 5 to 9:

• deaths_number_5to9.csv
• deaths_number_5to9_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_number_5to9_by_region_unicef.csv

4. 3 for children from 10 to 14:

• deaths_number_10to14.csv
• deaths_number_10to14_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_number_10to14_by_region_unicef.csv

5. 3 for children from 15 to 19:

• deaths_number_15to19.csv
• deaths_number_15to19_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_number_15to19_by_region_unicef.csv

6. 3 for children from 20 to 24:

• deaths_number_20to24.csv
• deaths_number_20to24_by_region_development.csv
• deaths_number_20to24_by_region_unicef.csv

Each category contains one table for country-wise death series and two tables for region-wise (by location and by the level of development) death series. Each record in the tables is divided into 3: actual estimate, lower bound, and upper bound of the estimate.
