UNICEF data on the DPRK

Complete data: http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/korea.html
  • About 20% of children under the age of two suffer from diarrhoeal diseases caused by contaminated water and poor hygiene practices.
  • Approximately one third of mothers are malnourished and anaemic, a rate that has not improved since 2002.
  • A lack of high-quality obstetric care contributes to a reported maternal mortality rate of 110 deaths per 100,000 live births.
