The prevalence of anaemia among children under 5 in Brazil is forecasted to rise from 25.8% in 2024 to 26.24% in 2028. This indicates a gradual year-on-year increase, with a consistent annual growth rate contributing to this trend. In 2023, the actual prevalence stood at 25.7%, suggesting a persistent upward trend over the forecasted period. The Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five years remains modest but noteworthy as a signal for ongoing public health challenges.
Future trends to watch for include potential interventions in nutrition and healthcare that could alter this trajectory. Continuous monitoring of economic factors and healthcare access will be crucial to address the rising rates. Policymakers might focus on targeted policies aimed at improving child nutrition and healthcare delivery, potentially affecting future prevalence trends.
