| The Loomba Foundation's World Widows Report is the authoritative comprehensive data source about the discrimination and injustice faced by widows and their dependants country by country and worldwide, informing SDG-era policy formulation by the United Nations and national governments. Key findings include: The global affected population numbers 258 million widows with 585 million children. Of these, 38 million widows live in extreme poverty where basic needs are unmet. Widows with only female children and child widows aged between 10 and 17 face severe discrimination in many developing countries. Worst affected by conflict are widows in Afghanistan, Iraq, South Sudan, Central African Republic and Syria; by the Boko Haram insurgency, those in northeast Nigeria, southeast Niger, west Chad and north Cameroon. | |
