The Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health is a new global health partnership launched in 2005 to accelerate efforts towards achieving Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) 4 and 5. The Partnership is a broad constituency of more than 170 members representing partner countries, UN and multilateral agencies, nongovernmental organizations, health professional associations, bilateral donors and foundations, and academic and research institutions.
The Partnership Members
The Partnership provides a forum through which members can combine their strengths and implement solutions that no one partner could achieve alone. It focuses on the following:
- Country Support - actively promoting improved partner coordination in countries and supporting the creation, implementation and evaluation of a single national plan.
- Advocacy - raising the profile of maternal, newborn and child health on political agendas and advocating for increased resources - financial and other.
- Effective interventions - promoting the assessment, scaling up, and delivery of evidence-based, cost-effective interventions, with a focus on reducing inequities in access to care.
- Monitoring and evaluation - assessing progress by holding stakeholders at all levels accountable in meeting their financial and policy commitments.
The Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health welcomes new members. To learn more about the Partnership's activities and how you can become involved, please contact:
