Analysis# Mongolia Infant Mortality Rate
Mongolia's infant mortality rate stands at 11.2 per 1,000 births in 2024, representing a historic low and a dramatic improvement from the 1980 peak of 95.8 per 1,000 births. Over the past 44 years, the country has reduced its infant mortality rate by 88.3 percent, fundamentally transforming child survival outcomes. This decline reflects sustained progress in public health infrastructure, maternal care, and nutrition across the nation.
The most striking acceleration occurred between 2015 and 2024, when the rate fell from 15.7 to 11.2 per 1,000 births—a decline of nearly 29 percent in just nine years. Mongolia's consistent year-over-year improvements throughout this period demonstrate sustained commitment to reducing child mortality. The trajectory suggests the country continues advancing toward lower thresholds, positioning it among improving performers in infant health outcomes.
