Photos Show the World's 'Uncounted' People

This article explores the global issue of unrecorded births and deaths through Juan Arredondo's photography project 'The Uncounted.' - Nearly half of all deaths and 25% of births go unrecorded worldwide each year. - The project documents people in Bangladesh, Rwanda, the Philippines, and Zambia.

- Lack of records hinders public health efforts, such as tracking disease and preventing childhood deaths. - In Zambia, data analysis led to a policy change increasing HIV testing for at-risk children from 3% to 85%.

The exhibition is on display at Photoville in Brooklyn through May 30.
