UNICEF's recently released 2025 Global Outlook report, "Prospects for Children in 2025: Building Resilient Systems for Children's Futures," underscores the critical role of robust Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) systems in safeguarding children's rights and well-being.

The report highlights that millions of children worldwide lack legal identity, leaving them invisible to governments and denied access to essential services like education, healthcare, and social protection. This lack of legal identity makes children vulnerable to exploitation, trafficking, and other forms of abuse.

The 2025 Global Outlook report urges governments and international organizations to prioritize the well-being of children and build more resilient systems to protect them from the growing crises they face.
