A 2026 study by Kwadwo Arhin hosted on Harvard Dataverse analyzes the economics of longevity in Sub-Saharan Africa. It examines the efficiency of health investments, institutional quality, and carbon emissions across different income groups. The research provides implications for achieving Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being).
Use Cases

- Model the relationship between carbon_emissions_per_capita and health_outcome_indicators for different income_groups.

- Assess progress toward SDG_3 targets by evaluating trends in health_outcomes relative to carbon_emissions.
