Unter5JährigenMortalität

Unter5Jährigen, also known as "Under5s" or "Under 5s," is a global initiative aimed at reducing child mortality and improving the lives of children under the age of five. The initiative is a collaborative effort between the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Bank, and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The primary goal of Unter5Jährigen is to achieve the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target of reducing the under-five mortality rate to at least 25 per 1,000 live births by 2030.

The initiative focuses on several key areas to achieve its goals. These include improving access to essential health services, such as vaccination, nutrition, and maternal health care. Unter5Jährigen also emphasizes the importance of social protection and economic empowerment for families, as well as the promotion of gender equality and the rights of children.

The initiative has been successful in many regions, with significant reductions in under-five mortality rates. However, challenges remain, particularly in low-resource settings and in countries affected by conflict or natural disasters. Unter5Jährigen continues to work with governments, communities, and partners to address these challenges and ensure that all children have the opportunity to thrive.

Unter5Jährigen is an essential part of the global effort to achieve the SDGs and create a more equitable and just world for all children. By focusing on the needs and rights of children under five, the initiative helps to build a stronger and more resilient future for generations to come.
