Distribution

Usage

• Training statistical models and machine learning algorithms, such as Random Forest or Neural Networks, to predict changes in life expectancy.
• Conducting socio-economic analysis linking national economic performance (GDP/GNI) to specific female health outcomes (Infant Mortality, Non-communicable Mortality).
• Evaluating the long-term impact of public health interventions, particularly tracking immunization coverage rates and basic sanitation improvements.
• Informing policy decisions related to women's health and development within conflict-affected or developing nations.

Coverage

• Geographic Scope: Afghanistan.
• Time Range: Annual observations from 2000 up to and including 2018.
• Demographic Scope: Exclusively focuses on indicators pertaining to the Female population.
• Data Source Note: The indicators are derived from established global sources, including the World Bank's World Development Indicators and health data provided by the World Health Organization (WHO).

Who Can Use It

• Data Scientists: Utilising time-series analysis to model trends in mortality and health service access.
• Public Health Officials: Benchmarking Afghanistan's progress against global health targets, such as reducing infant mortality and increasing immunization rates.
• Economists: Studying the correlation between national income indicators and population health metrics.
• University Researchers: Writing dissertations or academic papers focused on gender and development studies in South Asia.
