Reasons for child mortality Here are some main reasons why Child Mortality is major in India.  Diarrhea  Poor Sanitation  Basic Health care  Malnutrition  Lack of Clean Drinking Water  Pneumonia  Measles

How bad is child Mortality? Child Mortality is to the point where children die every day and year. Approximately 26 million children are born every year and about 1.8 million children from that 26 million die before the age of five from Child Mortality. This is the highest rate in the world.

Resolutions In India the Government has started Child Health Programs, and strategies, including Vaccine- preventable childhood diseases, and specific health and nutrition interventions. Also trying to teach children efficient ways to survive.For example how to find food when needed and more.

What I would do to fix this problem  If I had the opportunity to fix this problem I would make a Child Mortality group just for India and I would call it IDCM ( India’s Department of Child Mortality). I would take in every child and women and keep them there until they are back to normal health. I would also tell the patients that the cost is free of charge so they could stay as long as they need to. I would only take donations to start this association and would try my best to help people in India if I could fix this problem.
