Summary • Reconfirmed evidence on cause of death from The Lancet Series on Child & Newborn • Presented updates on country mortality and coverage rates for 20 interventions • Moved from 42 Lancet countries to include other countries with high under-five mortality rates (above 90%) • Also, concerned with and want to work with other countries especially those with large disparities • Shared information on recent scientific evidence on the effectiveness of interventions and on delivery strategies.

  3. Summary • Included recognition of need for a stronger focus on continuum of care • maternal – newborn – child • home – community – facility – referral • Agreed on need for more attention to community and household approach • Call for further research on policies and implementation such as more effective delivery of interventions

  4. Summary • Excellent evidence based country examples of what works as well as on challenges faced • Agreed on need for strengthening outcome oriented health systems

  5. Summary • Called upon partners to collectively monitor and account for our investments in child health • New cost estimates provided • Tools to reprioritize resources to address the burden of disease using cost effective interventions • Identified resource gap for newborn and child health and identified need to mobilize new resources and better utilize existing resources

  6. Summary • Recognized the need for a longer term commitment by all partners around one country led strategy

  7. WHO WILL DO WHAT BY WHEN? • Follow-up meeting tomorrow by Countdown organizers, including country representatives, to develop an action plan • Steering Committee of the Partnership to meet on Thursday and Friday • Agenda includes agreeing on strategies to support countries

  8. WHO WILL DO WHAT BY WHEN? • UNICEF & WHO to discuss with key regional bodies the regional plans for MDG 4 & 5 monitoring • PMNCH to call for a consultation with the major global health partnerships to concretely plan coordinated action • Countries are called upon to move forward with one coordinated plan to reach MDG 4 & 5, with clear budgets, bringing partners together to raise coverage on the identified interventions
