Description

Overview:

The newborn or neonatal period relates to children during the first 28 days of life. This session will explore how really simple and low cost interventions at high coverage could save the life of a large proportion of newborn children. During the past two decades, we have seen a dramatic improvement in child survival. In 1990, almost 13 million children died every year. Today, this number has reduced by more than half
to below six million. This is the result of an increasing number of people gaining access to clean water,
vaccination, education, nutrition, and health care. Learn more by watching this video.
