Indirect Mortality Estimation

Indirect Mortality Estimation is a methodological approach in demographic analysis that infers mortality levels or trends from data sources not originally designed for direct mortality observation, such as fertility histories, sibling survival data, or orphanhood information, by exploiting statistical relationships and assumptions to reconstruct mortality patterns in the absence of complete vital registration systems.
