Every child deserves a wholesome beginning to life. We led the enormous international initiative that helped cut neonatal fatalities by almost 40% since 2000, saving 1.5 million newborns each year. Still, an estimated 5.3 million young children die each year from wholly avoidable illnesses, such as pneumonia, malaria and diarrhea.
As COVID-19 continues to spread rapidly, health services throughout the globe are overburdened. Children’s access to basic health treatments and decent meals is under threat. High levels of hunger and malnutrition have also been negatively impacted by the epidemic. We know the world’s children deserve better. As a leading authority on childhood, we have the experience and the worldwide footprint to offer what is required today for children.
