Technical notes:
Life expectancy at birth is an estimate of the number of years to be lived by a female or male newborn, based on current age-specific mortality rates. Life expectancy at birth by sex gives a statistical summary of current differences in male and female mortality across all ages. In areas with high infant and child mortality rates, the indicator is strongly influenced by trends and differentials in infant and child mortality.
Infant mortality rate is the total number of infants dying before reaching the age of one year per 1,000 live births in a given year. It is an approximation of the number of deaths per 1,000 children born alive who die within one year of birth. Under-five mortality rate is defined as the probability of dying before reaching age 5 and is expressed as the number of deaths under age 5 per 1,000 live births.
Estimates and projections of life expectancy, infant and under-five mortality rates are prepared every two years by the Population Division of the United Nations Secretariat from data compiled by the Population Division and Statistics Division from national statistical sources. The best source of data to compute the infant and under-five mortality rates is a civil registration system covering at least 90 percent of births and deaths in a country or area. As many developing countries lack complete and reliable statistics of births and deaths based on civil registration, various estimation techniques are used to calculate the indicators from population censuses and demographic surveys.
