A world of Contrasts: Fertility Rates across continents
The Visualization is about Average
fertility rate across the continents

The graph shows that fertility

rates have declined in most
continents over this time period.
For example, in 1995, the
average fertility rate in Africa
was 5.7 children per woman,
while in 2020 it was 4.7 children
per woman. But Saddest thing is
if they continue decline world

Fertility Frenzy or Fizzle? A Look at Survival Rates

The visualization is about the change

in survival rate of the new borns
over the years by regions.
Based on a graph of newborn
mortality rates in different
continents, we can infer several
things about the health and well-
being of newborns around the world.
Here are some key takeaways:
• Disparities in Newborn Survival
• Prioritization of Newborn Health
• Potential for Progress
Tiny Tragedies Reduced?

The reasons behind the decline in

mortality rates in Africa are likely
complex and multifaceted, but may
include factors like:
•Improved access to healthcare
services for mothers and children
•Increased public health campaigns
on child health
•Progress in reducing infectious
diseases
•Better nutrition programs for
children
