7. Maternal, Infant, and Child Health

The article on Maternal, Infant, and Child Health examines various conditions, health behaviors, and markers of health programs that affect the health, well-being, and quality of life of women, children and families. The resolution calls on national governments to compile critical health insights in order to track high maternal mortality rates and to build health workers equipped to assist developing countries.
The policy also echoes the Global Methodology for Women, Children and Adolescents' Health Increasing Health and Healthcare Programs and is the first of its kind from the WFPHA Working Bunch on Ladies, Children and Youth, driven by APHA leadership.
