UN ESCAP launched a project aimed at developing guidelines and providing technical support for conducting inequality assessments. The insights gained from these assessments are intended to guide future research and policy interventions to close registration gaps across different populations. However, once these inequalities are identified, countries have expressed the need for more understanding on how to effectively address them. Currently, there is a lack of information and best practices on addressing inequalities in the registration of births and deaths. Therefore, this summary of case studies highlighting effective strategies for improving birth registration in Pacific Island countries is designed to serve as a practical resource for nations, helping ensure that all births and deaths are registered, leaving no one behind.
