The issue of child mortality is currently under international spotlight, as the rates of neonatal and under five mortality are sobering. „About 29,000 children under the age of five [approximately] 21 each minute die every day, mainly from preventable causes‟. Although there has been a decline in global child mortality rates since 1990, sub-Saharan Africa still has the highest rates, where one child in eight dies before age five. As contained in the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) 2010 report, in 2008, sub-Saharan Africa bore half of the 8.8 million deaths in children under five. http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ nf2012 Centre for Human Rights LLM 2012-04-24T08:00:44Z 2012-04-24T08:00:44Z 2011/10/31 2012/04/24 Mini Dissertation Aduba, NA 2012/04/24, Million flickering embers : a multidisciplinary analysis of child mortality in Uganda, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/18617> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/18617 en University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria
