Progress for Children

Since 2004, the Progress for Children has published important data and analyses on global progress towards achieving Millennium Development Goals. This edition contains data on these and other child to specific targets that were set by world leaders at the UN General Assembly Special Session on Children held in 2002. It also includes comprehensive data on indicators such as birth registration, child labour, female genital mutilation/cutting, child marriage and children affected by war, which offer a snapshot of the state of child protection.
