Key Messages
-Role of Partner’s Forum highlighted in the pre-event coverage.
- Reduction in Newborn Mortality Rate.
-Scenario of maternal and newborn child mortality still deplorable in many parts of India.
-Accountability for $ 40 million which were pledged for maternal and child health at Geneva.
Impact
-The main impact was that the masses became aware of the Partners’ Forum it also brought to attention the much neglected issue of maternal and child health.
-Reduction in newborn mortality rate in the national capital, the impact of this message would be that the scenario in Delhi is far better than the other parts of the country.
-This key message however compares and contrasts the scenario of maternal and child health in the other parts of the country as compared to the national capital.
-This key message was found to be common in most of the coverage and the impact of which would be that the masses would become aware of the amount of seriousness of this project throughout the world and how the countries are focusing on reaching the MDG’s 4 and 5 by 2015.

350,000 women die during pregnancy or childbirth every year. 24,000 mothers mourn the loss of a child every day. Mothers' Index
![Page 34: The Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health Media Coverage Report Compiled by: 181 Event Media Coverage 182 Electronic Coverage](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030500/5aac89007f8b9ac55c8d177d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Norway tops the list while Afghanistan ranks last in the Mothers' Index. India ranks 73 in the list of 77 developing countries. Norway, with the highest ratio of female-to-male earned income, highest contraceptive prevalence rate, one of the lowest under-five mortality rates and one of the most generous maternity leave policies looks after mothers the best. The index was calculated as a weighted average of children's well-being, women's health, educational, economic and political status. Abysmal America The US ranks 28th for having one of the highest maternal mortality rates (1 in 4,800) among the wealthy nations: a woman in the US is more than five times as likely as one in Bosnia to die of pregnancy-related causes; the under-five mortality rate is twice of that in Finland, Iceland, Singapore or Sweden; it has the least generous maternity leave policy in the developed world; it also lags behind in women's political status, with only 17 per cent in the House of Representatives compared to 46 in Sweden. The Low Mark India has the dubious distinction of having the highest number of maternal deaths at 68,000 every year and under-five deaths at 18.3 lakh. Not just that, it also has the greatest shortfall of health workers (doctors, nurses and midwives), estimated to be over 515,000. Compiled by Damayanti Datta

India played major role in reducing global poverty: Pratibha Patil Noting that India played a major role in reducing global poverty, President Pratibha Patil today said economic recovery was important for achieving Millennium Development Goals. The fact that India was a "major contributor" to poverty reduction has been acknowledged in the UN secretary general's report on MDGs, she said. Patil was addressing the International Conclave on 2010 Partners' Forum: Innovation and Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health here. To ensure that the global economic recovery was durable, balanced and sustainable, she said stress should be laid on poverty alleviation and maternal health. "So far as India is concerned, our economy has shown resilience and is expected to grow by over 8% this year and then further accelerate," she said.

The president said India recognised its burden of maternal, newborn and child mortality as one of the highest in the world. "The curative aspect of health care is very important, but along with it, a broad approach that looks at the entire range of health care from preventive to rehabilitation should be adopted, which can result in a higher dividend in terms of healthy individuals," she added. Union health minister Ghulam Nabi Azad said for ensuring a rapid reduction in maternal and child mortality, the government has identified 250 backward and inaccessible districts accounting for one-third of the population. Appreciating India's introduction of bivalent polio vaccine in India, WHO director general Margaret Chan said WHO is finalising strategy for accountability in areas like resource mobilisation. United Nations chief Ban-Ki Moon has cautioned against using piecemeal approaches to address issues of maternal and child care saying this will only lead to partial remedies and solutions. The conference has been organised by the Union ministry of health and family welfare in collaboration with the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health -- an alliance of governments, UN agencies, professional bodies, NGOs and civil society, which was launched here five years ago to support global health efforts.

The fact that India was a "major contributor" to poverty reduction has been acknowledged in the UN secretary general's report on MDGs, she said. Patil was addressing the International Conclave on 2010 Partners' Forum: Innovation and Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health here. To ensure that the global economic recovery was durable, balanced and sustainable, she said stress should be laid on poverty alleviation and maternal health. "So far as India is concerned, our economy has shown resilience and is expected to grow by over 8% this year and then further accelerate," she said. The president said India recognised its burden of maternal, newborn and child mortality as one of the highest in the world. "The curative aspect of health care is very important, but along with it, a broad approach that looks at the entire range of health care from preventive to rehabilitation should be adopted, which can result in a higher dividend in terms of healthy individuals," she added. Union health minister Ghulam Nabi Azad said for ensuring a rapid reduction in maternal and child mortality, the government has identified 250 backward and inaccessible districts accounting for one-third of the population. Appreciating India's introduction of bivalent polio vaccine in India, WHO director general Margaret Chan said WHO is finalising strategy for accountability in areas like resource mobilisation. United Nations chief Ban-Ki Moon has cautioned against using piecemeal approaches to address issues of maternal and child care saying this will only lead to partial remedies and solutions. The conference has been organised by the Union ministry of health and family welfare in collaboration with the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health -- an alliance of governments, UN agencies, professional bodies, NGOs and civil society, which was launched here five years ago to support global health efforts.

"So far as India is concerned, our economy has shown resilience and is expected to grow by over 8% this year and then further accelerate," she said. The president said India recognised its burden of maternal, newborn and child mortality as one of the highest in the world. "The curative aspect of health care is very important, but along with it, a broad approach that looks at the entire range of health care from preventive to rehabilitation should be adopted, which can result in a higher dividend in terms of healthy individuals," she added. Union health minister Ghulam Nabi Azad said for ensuring a rapid reduction in maternal and child mortality, the government has identified 250 backward and inaccessible districts accounting for one-third of the population. Appreciating India's introduction of bivalent polio vaccine in India, WHO director general Margaret Chan said WHO is finalising strategy for accountability in areas like resource mobilisation. United Nations chief Ban-Ki Moon has cautioned against using piecemeal approaches to address issues of maternal and child care saying this will only lead to partial remedies and solutions. The conference has been organised by the Union ministry of health and family welfare in collaboration with the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health -- an alliance of governments, UN agencies, professional bodies, NGOs and civil society, which was launched here five years ago to support global health efforts.

United Nations chief Ban-Ki Moon has cautioned against using piecemeal approaches to address issues of maternal and child care saying this will only lead to partial remedies and solutions. The conference has been organised by the Union ministry of health and family welfare in collaboration with the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health -- an alliance of governments, UN agencies, professional bodies, NGOs and civil society, which was launched here five years ago to support global health efforts.

India played major role in reducing global poverty: Pratibha Patil Noting that India played a major role in reducing global poverty, President Pratibha Patil today said economic recovery was important for achieving Millennium Development Goals. The fact that India was a "major contributor" to poverty reduction has been acknowledged in the UN secretary general's report on MDGs, she said. Patil was addressing the International Conclave on 2010 Partners' Forum: Innovation and Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health here. To ensure that the global economic recovery was durable, balanced and sustainable, she said stress should be laid on poverty alleviation and maternal health.

Kalyani only media programme to be in WHO's top 15 innovations list
NEW DELHI: Doordarshan’s long running series Kalyani, which has gradually evolved into a project for health issues, is the only media programme to feature among the top 15 innovations recognised by the World Health Organisation.
The announcement of the innovations was made during the International Conclave on 2010 Partners’ Forum: Innovations and Partnership for maternal, newborn and child health’ held in the capital by the Health and Family Welfare Ministry and inaugurated by President Pratibha Devisingh Patil.
The programme also created another milestone when the Health and Family Welfare Ministry agreed to extend the Kalyani Project for the ninth year in a row. A Memorandum of

Understanding was signed in this connection recently. Earlier in the year, it had signed an agreement with the National AIDS Control Organization (NACO) for one year.
Earlier, the programme had been selected by the Asian Media Information Communication Centre (AMIC), Singapore, as the best communication strategy on HIV/AIDS from India for the project titled ‘HIV/AIDS Prevention in Asia: Communicating the Message’.
Kalyani is an internationally acclaimed Health Communication Initiative of the Health and Family Welfare Ministry and Doordarshan. Watched by people in rural and semi-urban India, it has already won several awards including one by the Malaria Foundation International. The programme has been awarded the News Show of the Year Award for using creative plays and other means to help and educate the Indian Population at large about Malaria and other diseases of major concern in India.
Kalyani, which means "benedictions from a Goddess", is broadcast in nine states creating health awareness about malaria, tuberculosis, tobacco, reproductive health, sanitation, hygiene and HIV/AIDS. The programme is produced in partnership with the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Family Welfare and the National AIDS Control Organization (NACO).
As a result of the programme, Kalyani Clubs have sprung up in various parts of the country to spread the message of good health. The concept of Kalyani clubs (with membership of local people of the village who watch the programme avidly and strategize on how to implement the health messages) was a crucial part of the communications strategy.
Senior Doordarshan Executive Usha Bhasin, who heads the development communication division of Doordarshan, told indiantelevision.com that the objective of forming Kalyani clubs was to give a platform to women, particularly those who had never stepped out of their homes, to participate in the process of development. "The concept of Kalyani clubs was part of the communication strategy of the Kalyani programme started in 2002. We know that as a medium we can enter into the houses of people but we need support to sustain the messages”. At present, there are more than 3063 Kalyani Clubs across the country with more than 78965 members till August 2010.

Women's education important for health: Patil President Pratibha Patil Saturday termed women's education as the most important determinant for good health of women and children. "Education is a powerful driver of health. The relationship between poverty, lack of education and limited access to health services, is well recognised," Patil said, inaugurating a two-day international conference on "Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health" here. "India has recently enacted a Right to Education Act under which all children in the age group of 6-14 will receive free education. When fully realised, this will have a profound impact on health indicators as well," the president said. "Educated women tend to provide better guidance to their children and also promote education of girl children," she said.

Much more investment needed in health worldwide, say experts 2010-11-15 18:40:00 New Delhi, Nov 15 (IANS) Organisers of a two-day conference on maternal and child health in the Indian capital Monday said that more investments were needed to improve health services across the world. 'We need more money for health, and more health for money,' said Julio Frenk, chairman of Partnership for Maternal Newborn and Child Health (PMNCH) and Mexico's former health minister. Agreeing with Frenk, conference co-chair Health Secretary Sujatha Rao said that the India government is planning to increase its funding into education by 30 percent in next fiscal. 'We are expecting a 30 to 35 percent increase in health funds,' Rao said. Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad earlier announced that India will invest $150 million in maternal and child health programmes in the next fiscal.

'World is not investing enough in health. It is a key component for national and economic growth and security,' he said. The charter released at the end of the conference announces commitment to take more steps to achieve the MDG goals for maternal and child health. The 'Delhi Declaration' made by the forum commits setting up 'core indicators, integrated into country monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, so that all partners are accountable for the commitments and results agreed to in the global strategy'. It will also create a 'multi-stake holder process to ensure inclusiveness and participation, including the most vulnerable and marginalised'. Harmonisation of existing efforts and regular progress reports to WHO are other major components of the advocacy, action and accountability commitments. The forum has agreed to meet again in 2015 to review the progress and evaluate the achievements. Frenk, who was Mexico's health minister from 2000 to 2006, is at present dean of faculty and T. and G. Angelopoulos Professor of public health and international development at the Harvard School of Public Health.

Government to focus on maternal, child health in 250 districts 2010-11-15 18:50:00 New Delhi, Nov 15 (IANS) The central government is planning a special programme focusing on 250 districts in states such as Bihar and Chhattisgarh that are lagging behind in maternal and child health. 'The maternal mortality rate is 230 per lakh live births at present in India. We are progressing at a rate of four percent per year since 1990, but more needs to be done,' Health Secretary Sujatha Rao said at a press conference here. 'While some states have done well, some like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Chattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, and some other northern states are lagging far behind. The focus is to improve health services in these states,' Rao said.

The programme will provide a 'complete set of guaranteed services' that will include even clothes for the baby and the mother from a below poverty line (BPL) family. It will also provide 'good hospital environment, free transport and skilled doctors and nurses', Rao said. 'The gap in human resource, however, still needs to be focused upon.' The health secretary added that the government was focusing on involving private sector as well. 'There are many private clinics that are not covered under government schemes. Around January, the health minister will announce the plan which is being worked upon,' she said. The government, she disclosed, was trying to identify private clinics where women could be referred to. 'We will also have to negotiate on the prices private clinics should charge.' According to the health secretary, maternal care needed to be seen as a collective issue, including factors like education, gender empowerment, poverty and other socio-economic issues.

Mothers, newborns to get targeted help in 250 districts The Centre has identified 250 backward and inaccessible districts where mothers and newborns would be provided targeted help to reduce the mortality rate. The 250 districts, in mainly backward States, account for one-third of the country’s population and would be funded for the scheme through the National Rural Health Mission, officials sources said. The scheme, which was announced by Union Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad, has been launched as part of a renewed focus worldwide to meet the Millennium Development Goals by 2015. The pledges were taken by various nations at the partner’s forum on women and children’s health, which concluded its two-day session on Sunday, Health Secretary Sujatha Rao told reporters in New Delhi on Monday.

The forum also adopted a Delhi declaration which included pledges to work with governments and other key stakeholders to transform into action the pledges made in the global strategy. The document said the countries would act on the emerging consensus on priority, evidence-based interventions, and ensure that these are articulated in the form of national plans and implemented equitably at scale through the continuum of care, in order to achieve the agreed results for women’s, newborn and children’s health. A core set of indicators were integrated into country monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, so that all partners are accountable for the commitments and results agreed to in the global strategy. Dean Julio Frenk of Harvard School of Public Health said though India has made a rapid progress as far as economic growth is concerned, it is still one of the few countries which have the highest maternal and infant mortality rates. The conference, he said, also called for linking maternal health with other life threatening diseases like AIDS and Tuberculosis.

President says durable economic recovery must to achieve MDGs President Pratibha Patil today said it was important for global economic recovery to be durable, balanced and sustainable for achieving the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Inaugurating an international conclave on "2010 Partners' Forum: Innovation and Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health" here, Ms Patil said that the UN Summit on MDGs in September this year had acknowledged that there had been some reduction in the global poverty levels. She said the UN Secretary General's report on MDGs had also acknowledged that India's efforts were a major contributor to poverty reduction.

Ms Patil said that, however, following the economic and financial crisis of 2008, more than 60 million people across the globe had slipped back into poverty. She said that the Indian economy had shown resilience and was expected to grow by more than 8 per cent this year and then further accelerate. "Our efforts to push for growth are accompanied by efforts to ensure that the fruits of growth reach across our society. The main objective of India's ambitious socio-economic development programmes is to have inclusive growth," she said.The conclave has been organised by the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare in collaboration with the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health - an alliance of governments, UN agencies, professional bodies, NGOs and civil society, which was launched in New Delhi five years ago, to support global health efforts. The President said the Global Strategy on Women and Children's Health, launched at the UN Summit on MDGs in September this year, was correct in calling for co-ordinated action and use of innovations in technologies, treatment and service delivery for providing healthcare with a focus on the most vulnerable. The Strategy also underlines that resources are required to meet investments for women's and children's survival and health in low and middle income countries in accordance with national plans, she said. She was happy that the Strategy had received a positive response and commitments to the tune of $ 40 billion had been made. Ms Patil said India recognised that its burden of maternal, newborn and child mortality was one of the highest in the world and was conscious of this onerous challenge, as well as the enormous responsibility. She spoke about India's efforts in this area through the National Rural Health Mission and other programmes. She stressed the importance of education as a powerful driver of health and referred to the recently enacted Right to Education Act under which all Indian children in the age group of 6 to 14 years will receive free education. "When fully realised this will have a profound impact on health indicators as well. To ensure that children remain in school and that this also benefits them nutritionally, we also run the largest school-lunch programme in the world. This is being supplemented by Saakshar Bharat a special programme focused on female literacy launched in 2009," she said. The President said India was also a place where many solutions and innovations for women's and children's health could be realized - given its academic, scientific, technical and industrial capital and prowess. "Our pharmaceutical industry has been a global hub for vaccines and antiretroviral production, and helped the developing world in meeting its requirements at an affordable cost. India now aims to give a major thrust to developing affordable health technologies - from biomedical equipment, diagnostics, implants, devices, new drugs and vaccines; to the use of information and communication technology for health," she said.

Ms Patil said India sought partnerships to make rapid advances in its shared mission of increasing access to healthcare, particularly by women and children, through innovation. "I call upon the public health fraternity to offer ways of delivering healthcare more efficiently, effectively and equitably. I call upon the academics and researchers to discover new solutions and ensure rapid translation of discoveries to products, to prevent disease and save lives. There should also be exchange of experiences and best practices between countries and stakeholders," she said. "Changes in our societies are not possible without the wider commitment and action of all stakeholders. With only five years left until the 2015 deadline to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, there is an even greater need to give impetus to the endeavours to translate pledges into real, time-bound actions, that would substantially improve the survival and health of women and children. The Global health community must bring to this task, concerted will and commitment," she added.
