Implementing Maternal Death Surveillance & Response
This event brought together Ministers and senior officials from nearly 20 countries in the Asia-Pacific region to discuss mutual strategies and principles in accelerating progress for women's and children's health in the region.
They are useful evidence summaries with country case studies, focusing on five themes that are important to improving women’s and children’s health: accountability, advocacy, implementation, innovation, investment and research. They were designed to further the dialogue between policymakers, programme managers, and other stakeholders to achieve “more, better, and faster” reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health in their region.
They can now be used as helpful guides to support the development of women’s and children’s health in other regions.
