“ACT Azerbaijan” presents results of the survey it conducted on April 19- May 1 in Baku city.
Today, June 1, marks International Day of Children’s Protection. Celebrating this day is simultaneously difficult and important in the modern world, where millions of children suffer from starvation, war, violence and aggression.
Problems of children in Azerbaijan start before their birth. Azerbaijan stands among leading countries in Europe in the European Council Parliamentary Assembly Resolution on gender equality in terms of abortions related to gender discrimination. Sex ratio of newborns in Azerbaijan according to State Statistical Committee's latest report is 114 boys against 100 girls, while the global average is 105-106 boys versus 100 girls. The number of 114 reveals the fact that most of the parents in the country are inclined towards gender discrimination.
Given the social significance of the issue, ACT Azerbaijan asked the residents in Baku about what gender they would prefer for their children.
Survey revealed interesting results as more than half (59%) of the people said sex of their children doesn’t matter to them. Men accounted for vast majority (71%) of the supporters of this approach. Mainly middle-aged-people (aged between 35-44) attaches no significance to gender of a child to be born (70%). Health of the baby is much more important to them rather it is boy or a girl.
Some 29% are fond of baby girls with mainly ladies (34 %) and elderly people aged over 65 (40 %).
Surprisingly, dreamers of baby boys are comparatively less (12 %). Mainly men (12 %) and youth (aged between18-24) prefer to have a boy over a girl (23 %).
One of the interesting moments is that while youth want a boy, elderly people pin their care and love to girls.
Survey was conducted via phone among 400 respondents in Baku city on April 19- May 1. Incorrectness rate of the survey is 4.9 % maximum.
