UNICEF: 150 millones de niños en el mundo no están inscritos en el registro civil
A recent UNICEF report reveals that, despite global progress, hundreds of millions of children under the age of five lack legal identity, excluding them from essential services such as education and healthcare. This deficit perpetuates vulnerability and limits the future development of the most marginalized populations. Digital transformation and the removal of economic barriers have facilitated the registration of a significant portion of the child population. However, regional disparities are extreme, with Oceania and sub-Saharan Africa showing the lowest registration rates, while other regions have achieved full coverage. This issue is crucial for open data because it underscores the need for inclusive and transparent data systems. Improving the availability and access to accurate demographic data is essential for designing effective public policies that ensure no child is left unregistered or denied access to their basic rights.
