Abstract
In this study, we sought to highlight a side of the interrelations between income inequality and health indicators, and other assess the problem taking into account the socio-professional status and regional inequalities. In support databases of EDSN 1998 and EDSN-MICS 2006; after calculating the indicators of inequality, it appears in a preliminary analysis that income inequality has increased in Niger from 1998 to 2006. The analysis of these indicators by region confirms and reinforces the existence of a regional disparity in income inequality. Finally, the level of income inequality by region is itself a determinant of child mortality in Niger. Thus, regions with low child mortality also have the lowest rates of poverty in Niger.
