Civil Registration and Vital Statistics

Vital Strategies’ Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) Program collaborates with governments to count every human life and death, extending the rights and protections of registration to all, and ensuring high-quality cause of death data are available to policy makers. Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) is at the root of good governance. For individuals, birth and death certificates are key to unlocking social benefits including education, health care, property inheritance and the right to vote, among others.
