Description


The Maternal and Child Health program aims to save and improve the lives of women, adolescents, and children by developing solutions that promote the quality and accountability of health services for the most vulnerable.

 

 

The Maternal and Child Health program is committed to developing solutions through implementation research that promotes the systematic uptake of evidence-based research into routine practice and policies and ultimately improves the quality, accessibility, and effectiveness of health services and care. Reaching these vulnerable populations requires strengthening primary healthcare systems and improving how health information is collected, analyzed, and used, to ensure resources go where they are needed most.

 

 

“The Maternal and Child Health program funds a cohort of research projects and related activities addressing the following two thematic areas, with a focus on West Africa and the Middle East and North Africa regions:

 

 

Health information systems

 

Adolescent sexual and reproductive health and rights
