The project supports the Canadian Partnership for Women and Children’s Health (CanWaCH), a network of Canadian non-governmental organizations, health professionals and academia representatives who work on issues related to maternal, newborn and child health in developing countries. The project aims to: (1) enhance knowledge sharing among its member organizations of best practices in women’s, adolescents’ and children’s health globally, including sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR); (2) increase the contribution of Canadian partners and technical experts to report on global health; and (3) improve engagement of Canadian stakeholders, the private sector and the public on global women’s, adolescents’ and children’s health issues. CanWaCH’s work is focused on the core pillars of: knowledge exchange, measuring results and stakeholder engagement.
