Variables
| Variable | ID | Unit | Definition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Life expectancy at birth | life-expectancy | years | Years a newborn would live if mortality patterns at birth stayed the same throughout life (World Bank, UN World Population Prospects). |
| Fertility rate | fertility-rate | births per woman | Total fertility rate: births a woman would have over her lifetime at current age-specific fertility rates (World Bank, UN World Population Prospects). |
| Road traffic death rate | road-traffic-death-rate | per 100,000 people | Estimated deaths from road traffic injuries per 100,000 people (WHO estimate via the World Bank), adjusted for under-reporting. |
Methodology
SP.DYN.LE00.IN: Life expectancy at birth indicates the number of years a newborn infant would live if prevailing patterns of mortality at the time of its birth were to stay the same throughout its life. SP.DYN.TFRT.IN: Total fertility rate represents the number of children that would be born to a woman if she were to live to the end of her childbearing years and bear children in accordance with age-specific fertility rates of the specified year. SH.STA.TRAF.P5: Mortality caused by road traffic injury is estimated road traffic fatal injury deaths per 100,000 population.
World Bank WDI figures are revised when the World Bank or the underlying national and UN sources revise them; the retrieval date is shown.
Life expectancy and fertility are estimates from the UN World Population Prospects and national sources; road traffic deaths are WHO estimates, which adjust for under-reporting and are higher than police-recorded deaths. All can be revised back in time.
