The Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health (PMNCH) is a multi-constituency partnership hosted by the World Health Organization and chaired by Graça Machel. PMNCH seeks to achieve universal access to comprehensive, high-quality reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health care. PMNCH works with more than 650 members in the reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health (RMNCH) communities across seven constituencies: # Academic research and teaching institutions # Donors and foundations # Health-care professionals # Multilateral agencies # Non-governmental organizations # Partner countries # The private sector PMNCH describes itself as "a platform for knowledge, advocacy and accountability to improve women and children’s health". The Partnership is governed by a Board chaired by Graça Machel. ==Main Activities== The Partnership plays a central role in facilitating joint action on many fronts, mainly progress towards the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) 4 and 5, to reduce child mortality and improve maternal health, as tracked by the Countdown to 2015 initiative, and through support for the Global Strategy for Women’s and Children’s Health (Global Strategy) and Every Woman Every Child. PMNCH enables members to share strategies, align objectives and resources, and collectively agree on policy interventions.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.who.int/pmnch/knowledge/publications/20130620_pmnchbrochurelowres.pdf?ua=1 )〕 PMNCH’s work and support to partners is focused on three key Strategic Objectives: # Promotion of knowledge and innovation for action in order to enhance policy, service delivery and financing mechanisms. # Advocacy to mobilize and consolidate resources and greater engagement towards RMNCH. # Promotion of accountability for resources and results in order to strengthen monitoring of RMNCH’s efforts. The Partnership issues annual reports on progress of commitments from more than 250 stakeholders and estimates that the Global Strategy has leveraged over US$18 billion in new and additional money for women’s and children’s health.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.who.int/pmnch/knowledge/publications/2013_pmnch_report/en/ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
