64.5 years was the average life expectancy in Ethiopia in 2021, an 18-year increase from 1990.

A 54% increase in the disparity between the highest and lowest SDI regions in Ethiopia occurred from 1990 to 2019, demonstrating persistent inequities within the country.

18.5% of all DALYs in Ethiopia in 2021 were due to neonatal disorders, representing the leading cause of burden in the country.
