Home›Nutrition Program›Geographic ScopeBrowse ByGeographic ScopeGeographic scope sorts public health programs by how wide an area each one covers, from a single country to the whole world. Wikipedia calls the Global Polio Eradication Initiative "the largest international public health initiative in history," a scope spanning nearly every country on earth. This dimension lets a visitor separate global campaigns from local or regional ones.FactsGeographic ScopeSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEra of EmergenceWell-attested1961 1Geographic ScopeFilter Results25 entriesProgram KindAllHealth Education (1)Human Nutrition (20)Vaccination (1)Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) (1)Where (Country)AllAfrica (5)Asia (5)Bangladesh (1)Canada (1)Chile (1)Ethiopia (1)Europe (1)France (1)India (1)Indonesia (1)Latin America (4)Malawi (1)Mexico (1)North America (3)Pakistan (1)Peru (1)Philippines (1)Senegal (1)South America (1)Sri Lanka (1)Switzerland (1)The Caribbean (4)United States (1)Vietnam (1)Zambia (1)Era (Launch Year)All1915 (3)1944 (1)1946 (1)1954 (1)1955 (1)1968 (1)1973 (1)1974 (2)1979 (1)1984 (1)1986 (1)1992 (4)1994 (2)1995 (1)2000 (1)2001 (1)2002 (4)2003 (1)2005 (2)2006 (1)2008 (3)2010 (4)2012 (2)2015 (1)2018 (3)2021 (1)2022 (1)StatusAllConcluded (2)Ongoing (18)Target PopulationAllAll (2)Children (4)Mothers (3)Health GoalAllAccess (3)Behaviour (3)Eradication (5)Reduction (10)Associated WithAllMaternal and Child Health (1)Nutrition Science (22)Disease or Condition AddressedAllObesity (1)Area (sq km)All41,291 (1)67,240 (1)118,484 (1)148,460 (1)196,722 (1)239,681 (1)331,338 (1)347,681 (1)632,702.3 (1)752,617 (1)756,102 (1)881,913 (1)1,104,300 (1)1,285,216 (1)1,904,569 (1)1,972,550 (1)3,287,263 (1)9,866,632 (1)9,984,670 (1)10,186,000 (1)17,840,000 (1)20,111,457 (1)24,709,000 (1)30,370,000 (1)44,579,000 (1)Country CountAll12 (1)23 (1)44 (1)49 (1)54 (1)Government TypeAllConstitutional Monarchy (1)One-Party (1)Republic (16)Highest Elevation (m)All5642 (1)5895 (1)6190 (1)6967 (1)8849 (1)Income GroupAllHigh (5)Low (2)Lower-Middle (5)Upper-Middle (6)Independence or Founding YearAll843 (1)1776 (1)1818 (1)1821 (2)1848 (1)1867 (1)1945 (2)1946 (1)1947 (2)1948 (1)1960 (1)1964 (2)1971 (1)1995 (1)LandlockedAllNo (14)Yes (4)PopulationAll9,154,242 (1)18,847,519 (1)19,629,588 (1)20,216,029 (1)21,756,000 (1)22,224,282 (1)34,352,720 (1)41,417,056 (1)44,200,000 (1)69,081,996 (1)103,439,000 (1)114,000,000 (1)134,000,000 (1)138,000,000 (1)169,828,911 (1)241,499,431 (1)288,315,089 (1)340,587,000 (1)434,254,119 (1)592,296,233 (1)656,098,097 (1)745,173,774 (1)1,210,854,977 (1)1,393,676,444 (1)4,694,576,167 (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 25AfricaGeographic Scope6 entriesAsiaGeographic Scope6 entriesBangladeshGeographic Scope1 entryCanadaGeographic Scope1 entryThe CaribbeanGeographic Scope1 entryChileGeographic Scope1 entryEthiopiaGeographic Scope3 entriesEuropeGeographic Scope2 entriesFranceGeographic Scope1 entryIndiaGeographic Scope2 entriesIndonesiaGeographic Scope2 entriesLatin AmericaGeographic Scope1 entryMalawiGeographic Scope1 entryMexicoGeographic Scope2 entriesNorth AmericaGeographic Scope5 entriesPakistanGeographic Scope1 entryPeruGeographic Scope2 entriesPhilippinesGeographic Scope1 entrySenegalGeographic Scope1 entrySouth AmericaGeographic Scope4 entriesSri LankaGeographic Scope1 entrySwitzerlandGeographic Scope1 entryUnited StatesGeographic Scope2 entriesVietnamGeographic Scope1 entryZambiaGeographic Scope1 entrySources1.
