Summary

Strengthening Systems for Safer Childbirth, an initiative by MSD for Mothers responds to the urgent need to pick up the pace in saving women’s lives and meet the Sustainable Development Goals for reducing maternal mortality. We believe that communities know best what’s needed to make the difference and that solutions are strongest when we can work across silos and sectors. Our goal is to strengthen locally-led, multi-sector coalitions, enabling them to implement solutions that will improve access to high-quality, respectful maternal health — for lasting impact. While there are 6 coalition of partners across 4 countries, namely India, Kenya, Nigeria and Sierra Leone, this submission focuses on ONE of the coalition in Niarobi County, Kenya - MamaLink. MamaLink is deploying an emergency transportation hotline for pregnant women in Nairobi.
