Global maternal mortality reduction initiatives

Overview

Governments in Mizoram, India, and The Gambia have launched strategic roadmaps to combat maternal and newborn mortality.

Mizoram introduced the SUMAN roadmap 2030, which seeks to reduce the maternal mortality rate to fewer than 70 deaths per 100,000 live births by 2030 through improved healthcare during pregnancy and childbirth.

In The Gambia, a national roadmap was launched to address medical, social, and economic factors including poverty and gender inequality. This multisectoral approach aims to build on previous progress, noting that mortality rates fell from 433 to 289 deaths per 100,000 live births between 2013 and 2020.
