The Progress of Nations is an annual UNICEF report that ranks the nations of the world according to statistics reflecting the social health of children. The 1997 edition looks at the progress made in the areas of health, nutrition, education, water and sanitation. It discusses the quality of basic education, people's access to hygienic sanitation and the effects of AIDS on child death rates. The Progress of Nations also addresses the issue of violence against women and girls, how justice systems handle young offenders and the protection of breastfeeding from unethical practices to market infant formula.
