Childhood Anemia Analysis in Nigeria
Project Description
This project explores the relationship between maternal educational level, household wealth index, and childhood anemia among Nigerian children aged 0–59 months using data from the 2018 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS).
The analysis investigates whether socioeconomic factors are associated with children's anemia status through data cleaning, descriptive analysis, and interactive visualizations. The goal is to generate evidence-based insights that can inform public health policies and interventions aimed at reducing childhood anemia.
Research Questions
How does a mother's educational level relate to child anemia?
How does household wealth index relate to child anemia?
Tools Used
Microsoft Excel– Initial data inspection
MySQL – Data cleaning, preprocessing, and analysis
Power BI– Data visualization and dashboard development
Analytical Techniques
Data Cleaning
Frequency Distribution
Cross-tabulation
Percentage Analysis
nteractive Dashboard Visualization
Key Findings
Children whose mothers had higher levels of education showed a higher proportion of non-anemic outcomes.
Children from wealthier households were more likely to be non-anemic than those from poorer households.
The findings suggest that maternal education and household wealth are associated with childhood anemia among Nigerian children.
