Global Child Well-Being
A global summit held in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, in October 2026, with representatives from more than 100 countries, discussed ways to invest in children’s well-being by strengthening social protection, health care, education, and early childhood development. The issue is especially important given that the number of children under 15 reached about 2.01 billion in 2025—24.4% of the world’s population—while limited resources, debt, conflict, poverty, and weak coordination and data systems hinder investment. The article recommended prioritizing nutrition, health, education, and social protection; supporting poor families; and strengthening mental health services and protection from violence. It stressed that investing in children advances long-term development, productivity, and equity.
