Lifetime risk of maternal death (%)

This indicator quantifies the likelihood that a female, aged 15, will succumb to complications related to pregnancy or childbirth during her lifetime, based on prevailing fertility and mortality rates, assuming these rates remain stable. It reflects not only the risks directly associated with maternal health but also accounts for other potential health threats that may influence overall mortality. This measure serves as a vital tool for policymakers and health professionals to assess the effectiveness of maternal health interventions, identify at-risk populations, and allocate resources efficiently. By highlighting the systemic factors contributing to maternal mortality, it underscores the urgency for improved healthcare access, education, and socio-economic support within communities to enhance women's health outcomes globally.
