Natural Resource Protection and Child Health Indicators, 2022 Release (2010 – 2022)

Purpose:
To assist in the country selection process for the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) by providing indicators of natural resource protection and child health that complement the governance, social, and economic indicators used by MCC as country selection criteria.
Abstract:
The Natural Resource Protection and Child Health Indicators, 2022 Release, is produced in support of the U.S. Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) as selection criteria for funding eligibility. The Natural Resource Protection Indicator (NRPI) and Child Health Indicator (CHI) are based on proximity-to-target scores ranging from 0 to 100 (at target). The NRPI covers 220 countries and is calculated based on the weighted average percentage of biomes under protected status. The CHI is a composite index for 195 countries derived from the average of three proximity-to-target scores for access to at least basic water and sanitation together with child mortality rates. The 2022 release includes a consistent time series of NRPI scores for 2010 to 2022 and CHI scores for 2010 to 2020.
