Donors, governments and civil society have joined efforts to end avoidable child’s and women’s death for decades. In twenty years, the percentage of under-5 mortality decreased by more than 40%, from 12 to 6,9 millions deaths in 2011. Between 1990 and 2013, maternal mortality decreased by 45%, from 523,000 to 289,000 deaths.
“« If we wish to realise the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, improving child and women’s health is a must. We defend the fundamental right to a better health, without discrimination of age or gender, even in the most difficult circumstances.»”

La France alloue à la santé mondiale moins de 8% de son budget total pour la solidarité internationale.
Prioriser la santé mondiale, c’est doubler cette part❗️
Phew! That was close.
