This book examines the state of child health and well-being in
India. It traces the roots of child health inequalities in India;
draws on the latest NFHS-V, 2019–21 data; and analyses various
child health and nutrition indicators from the perspective of
equity and efficiency. This volume addresses various contexts and
methodologies available to measure health inequalities among Indian
children. It also assesses the child’s well-being in terms of
“Multidimensional Child Poverty”. As a policy document, this
work examines and quantifies the equity and efficiency dimensions
of various child health indicators among Indian states. Assessment
of between- and within-group inequalities by various socio-economic
groups provides new insights into addressing the issue of health
inequalities among Indian children. An in-depth work on child
health and development, this book will be of great interest to
scholars and researchers of health and public policy, development
studies, health economics, and South Asian studies. It will also be
of use to NGOs, policymakers, and think-tanks in the field.
