Our Vision

Our goal is to reduce maternal and newborn infant mortality so as to achieve MDGs 4 and 5, by supporting the evidence based policy and practice for maternal, neonatal and child health. Our objectives are:

  • Evidence on interventions to improve the survival of women and infants through (i) community interventions and (ii) health services delivery
  • A communication strategy that supports policy and management decision-making on large scale programmes for maternal and infant mortality reduction
  • Increased capacity in partner countries for knowledge generation and policy influence
