This is the website for The Manitoba
Child Health Atlas 2004, published solely on the World
Wide Web. The Atlas comes out of a 3-year project funded
by the Canadian Population Health Initiative focusing
on factors that contribute to inequalities in child health
and well-being. The Atlas provides descriptive, population-based
analyses of the health and educational outcomes of Manitoba
children, at the level of health regions and sub-regions.
Graphs and maps of variations in child health and educational
achievement at various stages of development and by family
circumstances and community characteristics are provided
on this website. Excel files with the data used to develop
these graphs and maps are also provided so users can develop
their own output.
A printed report based on the key findings related
to educational outcomes from the Atlas has been released
and is available for downloading (see above right). The
Atlas website contains the comprehensive list of educational
outcomes, as well as analyses related to other indicators.
This research has been funded by the Canadian Population
Health Initiative (CPHI), a program of the Canadian Institute
for Health Information (CIHI). The views expressed herein
