education, protection, early childhood development,
HID/AIDS, child mortality, child poverty, gender
equality, water and sanitation and child disability is of
concern by UNICEF [1].

easily seen.
The plot was done for
the median
populations since it
takes into account
both the lower and
upper bound.
The deaths have
been reducing over

Gender Equality
• Gender discrimination is a vice that is being fought by the
UNICEF organization.

among the innocent child.
• Favor of the boy-child is slowly coming to an end though
there are some places where it is being practiced.
• The data shows completion rates per 100 children in all the
regions of UNICEF and the calculated percentage [2].

age of 19 years around the globe within the UNICEF regions is
a matter of concern.

HIV/AIDS thus increasing the poverty levels among the
children.
