Census data is comprehensive and shows the real scenario of childhood indicators in Mozambique. Structuring and representing this data on maps and providing it to child policy-making sectors can serve as essential raw material for developing targeted policies and adopting specific corrective measures aimed at mitigating and improving children's living conditions.

The first phase would involve sharing the indicators with the targeted and critical communities, working with child policy makers to introduce localized corrective actions, and finally conducting sample studies to analyze indicator trends. Additionally, we would wait for the data from the next census to make comparisons.
