Assignment 6: Analysing Global Health Data, Based on Specific Indicators and Their Implications
Brief Description
Childhood mortality is one of the most detrimental healthcare outcomes throughout the
globe. Various health organizations, including the World Health Organisation (WHO), have made
significant progress in tracking and recording the healthcare outcomes of the populations. This
includes the child mortality rate, which has been used to determine the effectively of the child
and maternal health outcomes and the country's progress in attaining its developmental goals.
The SDG target 3.2 shows that the relevant targets regarding reducing child mortality rates by
2030 are slowly being achieved (World Health Organization, 2025a). All countries aim to reduce
mortality by addressing preventable causes. These statistics reflect on the vulnerability of these
nations and the disproportionate burden of disease faced by some nations. This essay will
provide a comprehensive overview of the same, including the data collection process, processing
and analyzing of the data, visualization and presentation and highlighting the implications and
how the presented data could be used to inform the development of the global health strategies
and interventions related to child mortality.
Data Collection, Processing, And Analysis Methods
This analysis utilized data from the World Health Organization database. This database
contains crucial data on child mortality rates, presenting factual information from global sources
and research. The data was processed using the Excel platform, calculating the neonatal mortality
rates, comparing disparities in the rates and analyzing the death proportions, and project progress
trends towards attaining the SDG (World Health Organization, 2025). The data will be
interpreted, and the emerging theme will be summarized using a thematic analysis approach.
