Abstract

In Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), children represent not only the future but also the cornerstone of societal development and progress. Their health and well-being serve as vital indicators of a nation's overall prosperity and potential. However, within these regions, numerous factors intricately intertwine to influence child outcomes, creating a complex landscape that demands careful examination. This study endeavours to delve deeply into this multifaceted tapestry of influences, dissecting the socio-economic, environmental, cultural, and healthcare-related determinants that shape the health and wellbeing of children in LMICs. By peering through this analytical lens, we aim not only to comprehend the challenges that hinder optimal child development but also to unearth the myriad opportunities for positive change within these settings.
