Abstract
Health makes many contributions to attaining economic growth and sustainable development. Numerous efforts have been made to improve the children's health status in the nations of the world. However, developing economies are still helpless in alleviating or decreasing to a great extent the infant's death. We have identified the contribution of key factors such as females’ employment, immunization, availability of safe drinking water facilities, and economic growth in lessening the infant mortality rate in nine developing economies from 2000 to 2020. The fixed effect result reveals the infant mortality rate has decreased due to females’ employment, immunization, and provision of safe drinking water facilities. Moreover, economic growth also contributes positively to decreasing infant deaths in the concerned economies. The study results recommend more earning and investment chances for making better the living standards of the communities and children's health status. Moreover, the Government must play its part in decreasing the infant’ mortality rate by providing basic facilities to the general public in these economies.
