One important strategy to improve the care of premature or low birthweight infants is kangaroo mother care (KMC). Yet it is underused globally.

On May 16, 2023, WHO issued a new Global Position Paper and Implementation strategy as a result: https://t.co/OfGegv5faW

@richardhorton1 Thanks, Richard! HL political leadership is so much needed. So let us push with research, evidence Lancet series and campaigns #borntoosoon !! Warm Mayday !! greetings from summerly Oslo! Lars

[richard horton @richardhorton1]

The reasons we are in an era of de-development for women’s + children’s health: there is no high-level political leadership; there is no high-level UN leadership; the global health financing landscape is more competitive; advocacy has weakened; and accountability has collapsed.

[PMNCH @PMNCH]

We need to invest ambitiously in small & sick newborn care to ensure that every newborn, everywhere, can survive & thrive.

9 in 10 babies #BornTooSoon before 28 weeks survive in high-income countries.

Only 1 in 10 survive in low-income countries.

This is unacceptable and we can and must change it.

The @UN's #BornTooSoon report reveals that in 2020, ∼13.4 million babies were born early, nearly 1M of whom died due to complications of preterm birth. Urgent political action & investments are needed to tackle the largest cause of child mortality: https://t.co/jI7qB1pjmT

[Mary Kinney @maryvkinney]

A decade ago #BornTooSoon ignited a movement for #preterm #newbornhealth w/ many milestones BUT not enough. Progress stalled & 152million #pretermbirths since then! New report shows what we need to do for next decade TOGETHER!

All our freedom depends on press freedom.

But in every corner of the world, freedom of the press is under attack.

On #WorldPressFreedomDay & every day, the world must stand with journalists as they stand for the truth.

[Bård Vegar Solhjell @bardvegar]

What's the world's greatest achivement the last 20 years? I'd go for halving child mortality, a monument of human progress. @gavi and @GaviSeth - in Oslo today - were instrumental to this achievment, alongside the great Tore Godal ao. @NorwayMFA @noradno are proud partners

[Norad @noradno]

The most important achievement is a 70% reduction in #vaccine preventable diseases, contributing to a 50% reduction in child mortality.
And the building of health systems has proven extremely important, especially during #COVID19 said @gavi CEO @GaviSeth at Norad-seminar today
