Respectful maternal, newborn and young child care

Summary: 

This webinar presented findings from the Breakthrough Research partnership on respectful care in Kenya and how it might inform interventions to provide respectful care to newborns and young infants during the COVID-19 response. An example from India on the challenges of maintaining respectful care during COVID19 was also shared. A representative from the White Ribbon Alliance also detailed the policy implications of promoting respectful care.

Quality of care experts will share global guidance and country experiences around quality of care for maternal, newborn and child health in the context of COVID-19. The series is co-hosted by the Network for Improving Quality of Care for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health and the QoC subgroup of the Child Health Task Force, with the support of UNICEF and the World Health Organization.
