The Program will tackle these issues through approaches that also focus on health systems strengthening, household and community mobilization, gender integration and eHealth, among others.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWith approaches tailored to meet individual country needs, the Program seeks to empower countries to design effective approaches, develop technical skills, apply analytical tools, manage workforce capacity and devote resources to reduce inequities in care and build sustainable health systems to keep mothers, newborns and children alive and healthy.","post_title":"Maternal and Child Survival Program (MCSP)","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"maternal-and-child-survival-program-mcsp","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2016-04-05 12:01:50","post_modified_gmt":"2016-04-05 16:01:50","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/?post_type=partner&#038;p=646","menu_order":0,"post_type":"partner","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":834,"post_author":"2613","post_date":"2010-10-25 19:41:46","post_date_gmt":"2010-10-25 19:41:46","post_content":"<p>The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is an independent agency that provides economic, development and humanitarian assistance around the world in support of the foreign policy goals of the United States.<\/p>\r\n<p>U.S. foreign assistance has always had the twofold purpose of furthering America's foreign policy interests in expanding democracy and free markets while improving the lives of the citizens of the developing world. Spending less than one-half of 1 percent of the federal budget, USAID works around the world to achieve these goals.<\/p>\r\n<p>USAID's history goes back to the Marshall Plan reconstruction of Europe after World War Two and the Truman Administration's Point Four Program. In 1961, the Foreign Assistance Act was signed into law and USAID was created by executive order.<\/p>\r\n<p>Since that time, USAID has been the principal U.S. agency to extend assistance to countries recovering from disaster, trying to escape poverty, and engaging in democratic reforms.<\/p>\r\n<p>USAID is an independent federal government agency that receives overall foreign policy guidance from the Secretary of State. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.usaid.gov\/our_work\/\">Our Work <\/a>supports long-term and equitable economic growth and advances U.S. foreign policy objectives by supporting:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp;economic growth, agriculture and trade;<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp;global health; and,<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp;democracy, conflict prevention and humanitarian assistance. <\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>We provide assistance in five regions of the world:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usaid.gov\/locations\/sub-saharan_africa\/\">Sub-Saharan Africa<\/a>;<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usaid.gov\/locations\/asia\/\">Asia<\/a>;<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usaid.gov\/locations\/latin_america_caribbean\/\">&nbsp;Latin America and the Caribbean<\/a>,<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usaid.gov\/locations\/europe_eurasia\/\">&nbsp;Europe and Eurasia<\/a>; and<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usaid.gov\/locations\/middle_east\/\">The Middle East<\/a>. <\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>With headquarters in Washington, D.C., USAID's strength is its field offices around the world. We work in close partnership with private voluntary organizations, indigenous organizations, universities, American businesses, international agencies, other governments, and other U.S. government agencies. USAID has working relationships with more than 3,500 American companies and over 300 U.S.-based private voluntary organizations.<\/p>\r\n<h2>What we do<\/h2>\r\n<p>The objective of USAID&rsquo;s neonatal program is to reduce neonatal mortality by building on and strengthening neonatal interventions within existing maternal and child health programs and linking with prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) in high HIV\/AIDS prevalence countries.<\/p>\r\n<p>Key program strategies include treating the mother and baby as a dyad by integrating maternal and newborn programs to support the full continuum of care during pregnancy, labor and birth, and after the birth of the baby with evidence-based perinatal and newborn interventions. USAID programs strengthen community-based approaches and empower families and communities to care for the newborn with simple preventive interventions such as warmth, hygienic cord care, early and exclusive breastfeeding, and to recognize and refer for complications such as infection. The program links communities to facilities, strengthens health systems, trains health providers, and improves quality of care in health facilities.<\/p>\r\n<p>By putting a spotlight on postpartum care, USAID has renewed its program efforts to strengthen the weakest link in the continuum of care to reach new mothers and their newborns for health services and information when most maternal and neonatal deaths occur. In a relatively new and evolving field, USAID&rsquo;s newborn care program supports operations research to guide the identification, bundling, and scaling up of interventions and emphasizes the support of global and regional leadership and advocacy.<\/p>","post_title":"U.S. Agency for International Development","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"us-agency-international-development","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2016-01-21 19:44:00","post_modified_gmt":"2016-01-21 19:44:00","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/?post_type=partner&#038;p=834","menu_order":0,"post_type":"partner","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":460,"post_author":"7211","post_date":"2011-03-30 20:49:42","post_date_gmt":"2011-03-30 20:49:42","post_content":"<p>The USAID Office of Health Systems&rsquo; ASSIST Project is a five-year global project that supports Millennium Development Goals and Post-MDGs by:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp; Testing  and implementing innovative, cutting-edge quality improvement and service delivery approaches in MNCH, such as collaborative improvement, process redesign, and integrating routine and complications care across system levels<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp; Developing, testing, and disseminating technical frameworks, approaches, and tools that can increase the efficiency, effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and sustainability of health system strengthening and quality improvement initiatives in support of the USAID EPCMD strategy, including strategies to integrate gender considerations in care delivery<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp; Building government and implementing partner capacity to apply improvement methods across health system levels (community, clinic, hospital, district, regional, central) to improve, scale up, and sustain high-impact, low-cost, people-centered MNCH and family planning services for leading causes of maternal newborn and child morbidity and mortality in USAID priority countries<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp; Strengthening frontline health worker and manager skills, motivation, and performance through integrated clinical and quality improvement capacity building and through engagement of health workers in making improvements in their local health care systems and processes<\/li>\r\n    <li>&nbsp;&nbsp; Supporting the development and testing of MNCH quality of care indicators, strengthening routine health information systems to enable regular tracking of quality measures at service delivery level, and promoting accountability at global, national, and sub-national levels<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Currently operating in 21 countries, the project supports the application of modern improvement methods by host country providers and managers in USAID-assisted countries and seeks to generate new knowledge to increase the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of applying improvement methods in low- and middle-income countries.

In addition, 2 million babies die in the last 3 months of pregnancy or during childbirth (stillbirths) and 295,000 maternal deaths occur each year*. We have the knowledge and tools to prevent at least two-thirds of these deaths. The global <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/every-newborn-action-plan\/\">Every Newborn Action Plan<\/a> (ENAP), launched in 2014, provides a road map of strategic actions for ending preventable newborn mortality and stillbirth and contributing to reducing maternal mortality and morbidity.\r\n<h6>*Most recent data available. Please visit our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/numbers\/\">Newborn Numbers<\/a> page to explore the data further (May 2022).<\/h6>\r\n<h2><b>The Plan<\/b><\/h2>\r\nThe ENAP presents evidence-based solutions to prevent newborn deaths and stillbirths. It sets out a clear path to 2020 with specific global and national milestones. The plan was based on evidence presented in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/the-lancet-every-newborn-series\/\"><em>The Lancet<\/em> Every Newborn series<\/a>, and developed within the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/issue\/every-woman-every-child\/\">Every Woman Every Child<\/a> framework.\r\n\r\nIn 2014, 194 member states of the Sixty-seventh World Health Assembly endorsed the action plan (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/resolution-wha-67-10-newborn-health-action-plan\/\">Resolution WHA 67.10<\/a>). Led by UNICEF and the World Health Organization, ENAP was guided by the advice of experts and partners and by multistakeholder consultations and a web-based consultation with over 300 comments from stakeholders. The WHO Director-General has been requested to monitor progress towards the achievement of the global goal and targets, reporting periodically to the World Health Assembly until 2030.\r\n<h2><strong>The Action<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nThe Every Newborn partnership enhances and supports coordinated, comprehensive planning and implementation of newborn-specific actions. These efforts have been coordinated by a management team with focused work streams: metrics, country implementation and advocacy. Other related partnerships have formed in support of <em>Every Women Every Children<\/em> including the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.qualityofcarenetwork.org\/\">Quality of Care Network<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/public-private-partnership-to-prevent-preterm-birth-presentation\/\">Partnership to Prevent Preterm Birth<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/breastfeeding-advocacy-initiative-call-action\/\">Breastfeeding Advocacy Initiative<\/a>, and others.\r\n\r\nSuccess of ENAP will come through links with global and national plans, measurement structures and accountability. By 2017, global agencies have set targets based on the shared goal to end preventable child and maternal deaths by 2030 including the Sustainable Development Goals and the <a href=\"http:\/\/globalstrategy.everywomaneverychild.org\/\">Global Strategy for Women\u2019s, Children\u2019s, and Adolescents\u2019 Health<\/a>. By 2017, at least 48 countries have established national newborn plans or integrated newborn content into their national health plans. As of 2016, over 50 countries had completed the Every Newborn tracking tool to facilitate country support in assessing progress, barriers, and resourcing technical assistance for newborn health in line with recommendations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1\/3\"][vc_single_image image=\"22210\" alignment=\"center\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2><strong>Key Resources<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/ending-preventable-newborn-deaths-and-stillbirths-by-2030\/\">Every Newborn 2025 Targets and Milestones<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/every-newborn-advocacy-toolkit-guidance-manual-ending-preventable-deaths\/\">Every Newborn Advocacy Toolkit<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/every-newborn-progress-report-2019\/\">Every Newborn progress report 2019<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/survive-and-thrive-transforming-care-for-every-small-and-sick-newborn\/\">Small and Sick Newborn report 2019<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthynewbornnetwork.org\/resource\/every-newborn-webinar\/\"> Every Newborn Webinar (2013 -
