Global Health and Development: Resources

Maternal, Newborn and Child Health Policy Briefs

We have witnessed important progress in maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH) outcomes in the past two decades, in part due to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and increased efforts by aid organizations to target MNCH. However, this progress has also been uneven, and aid to MNCH dropped in 2010 for the first time since the MDGs began.  In this context, it is important that we reaffirm our commitments to improving MNCH and ensure that existing aid is used effectively and efficiently to promote improved health outcomes.The following briefs provide an overview of the MNCH aid policies and patterns of some of the top donor organizations. By zooming in on specific programs and recipient countries, they highlight some of the strengths, challenges, and areas for improvement within MNCH aid.
