Research project: High resolution global mapping of women of childbearing age, pregnancies and births for Zika burden estimation - Dormant
Contemporary datasets the depcit the distribution of births and pregnancies are fundamental for estimating sub-national metrics of maternal and newborn health. These estimates can vary spatially within and between countries, and are influenced by the variability in age-specific fertility rates. Fine spatial resolution maps of births and pregnancies help to understand the public health burden of diseases such as Zika.
