Changing Lives In Our Lifetime: Global Childhood Report 2019
2019
This report from Save the Children summarizes the life-changing events that prematurely disrupt the childhoods of 1.2 billion children worldwide, particularly those related to poverty, conflict and fragility, and discrimination against girls. The report offers recommendations for change, and ranks 176 countries in an End of Childhood Index based on conditions that succeed or fail to protect children. Indicators used to measure an early end to childhood include under-5 mortality, growth-stunting malnutrition, out-of-school children, child labor, early marriage, adolescent births, conflict-driven displacement, and child homicide.
The report is Save the Children's third annual Global End of Childhood Report and Childhood Index. It includes illustrative data figures and brief case narratives about individual children whose childhoods were disrupted due to violence, poverty, vulnerabilities, mortality, and displacement. The report is accompanied by an interactive map that uses the End of Childhood Index data to show users those places across the world that are most difficult to be a child due to the three core threats of poverty, conflict, and gender discrimination.
