Produced in August 2011, this video highlights that every year, an estimated 360 000 women die in pregnancy and childbirth and around 8 million children die before their fifth birthday. Millions can be saved if the right health care is available.
WHO's department of maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health:
· generates and collect the latest evidence
· sets global standards
· helps to make treatments more affordable and effective
· provides guidance on delivering the best possible care
· designs training materials to give health workers the skills they need; and
· helps countries to get the right policies and programmes in place, and monitor progress
Help us to make sure that women and children everywhere enjoy their right to health.
