Considering the global pandemic of COVID-19, there is a need to give significant attention to the realization of good health and well-being on a global scale.
Progress has been made in increasing life expectancy and reducing some of the common causes of child and maternal mortality.
Between 2000 and 2016, the worldwide under-five mortality rate decreased by 47 percent (from 78 deaths per 1,000 live births to 41 deaths per 1,000 live births).
Still, the number of children dying under age five is very high: 5.6 million in 2016 |
