Life Expectancy Health Dataset

Key Features:

• Country & Region Data: Includes life expectancy data from countries across diverse continents, categorized by regions (e.g., Asia, Europe, Africa, etc.).
• Life Expectancy: The average life expectancy in years for each country, allowing comparisons and trend analysis.
• Socio-Economic Indicators:
  • GDP per capita: A measure of the economic development of each country.
  • Education: Average years of schooling, reflecting access to education as a development factor.
  • Alcohol Consumption: Alcohol use as a socio-economic health indicator.
  • Economic Status: Categorized by whether a country is developed or developing.
• Health Indicators:
  • Infant and Adult Mortality Rates: Key health metrics influencing life expectancy.
  • HIV Prevalence: The rate of HIV infection as a contributing health factor.
  • Immunization Rates: Data on vaccinations for diseases like Hepatitis B and Polio.
  • Prevalence of Diseases: Includes incidence rates for measles, diphtheria, and other diseases.
  • Body Mass Index (BMI): General health indicator based on BMI data.
  • Child and Adolescent Health: Data on thinness prevalence among young populations.

Purpose of the Dataset:

This dataset is designed to support:

1. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA): Analyze and understand trends in life expectancy across different regions and economic statuses.
2. Data Visualization: Create impactful visualizations, such as choropleth maps and scatter plots, to showcase relationships between socio-economic, health factors, and life expectancy.
3. Machine Learning: Develop predictive models to estimate life expectancy based on socio-economic and health data.
4. Policy Research: Provide valuable insights to guide policy decisions and identify critical factors affecting life expectancy globally.

Use Cases:

• Researchers: Ideal for health and economic researchers focusing on the determinants of life expectancy.
• Developers & Data Scientists: A great resource for building predictive models and conducting analysis in public health.
• Policy Makers: A valuable tool for understanding key factors influencing life expectancy to help inform public health policies.
