The proportions of children exposed to levels of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) higher than the WHO air quality guidelines are as follows:

93% of all children, and about 630 million children under 5 years, in the world;

in LMICs, 98% of all children under 5 years;

in HICs, 52% of children under 5 years;

in the WHO African and Eastern Mediterranean regions, 100% of all children under 5 years;

in LMICs in the South-East Asia Region, 99% of all children under 5 years;

in LMICs in the Western Pacific Region, 98% of all children under 5 years; and

in LMICs in the Region of the Americas, 87% of all children under 5 years

(low- and middle-income countries)
