What is it about?
We investigated why some Indonesian children don't have birth certificates. We found that factors like mother's age, education, marital status, wealth, location, and healthcare during childbirth influenced birth registration. Girls and older children were more likely to have birth certificates. To help all children, policies should target families with less money and limited healthcare access.
