The first 28 days of life – the neonatal period – is the most vulnerable time for a child’s survival. Children face the highest risk of dying in their first month of life at an average global rate of 17 deaths per 1,000 live births in 2022, down by 53 per cent from 37 deaths per 1,000 live births in 1990. In comparison, the probability of dying after the first month and before reaching ...

The under-five mortality rate refers to the probability a newborn would die before reaching exactly 5 years of age, expressed per 1,000 live births. In 2022, 4.9 million children under 5 years of age died. This translates to 13,400 children under the age of 5 dying every day in 2022. Globally, infectious diseases, including pneumonia, diarrhoea ...
to have a neonatal mortality rate of 12 or fewer deaths per 1,000 live births and an under-five mortality rate of 25 or fewer deaths per 1,000 live births by 2030. If these goals are to be met, the global community must double down on its efforts to ensure the most vulnerable children survive, wherever they are.
