Maternal Perinatal and Child Health Strategy Summary

Mission

The mission focuses on accelerating country-level support to scale up access to essential maternal and newborn interventions, thereby reducing mortality and morbidity and achieving universal coverage.

Vision

The vision envisions a world by 2015 where pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, and newborn care are highly valued, skilled care at every birth is prioritized, and universal coverage is sustained through strengthened health systems and sector-wide approaches.

Strategic Approach

• Emphasizes a global strategy using the Integrated Management of Pregnancy and Childbirth (IMPAC) framework, linked to Millennium Development Goals.
• Centers on four strategic areas: addressing country needs, reducing maternal and newborn mortality, building effective partnerships, and strengthening assessment, monitoring, and combatting diseases like HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis.
• Requires coordinated actions through collaborations with countries, partners, and stakeholders.

Operational Framework

• Involves partnerships among governments, NGOs, civil society, private sector, UN, and development partners to ensure skilled care for every birth.
• Provides guidance and tools to enhance health system response, worker skills, and community actions.

Motivation and Context

The strategy is driven by concerns over high maternal and newborn mortality rates and the risk of missing MDG targets, advocating for focused efforts and a concrete global plan to improve outcomes and link maternal health to broader development goals.
