Operationalizing the Africa Road Map
In 2003, the African Regional Reproductive Health Task Force, spearheaded by WHO/AFRO, called upon countries and partners to develop and operationalize the Africa Road Map for Accelerating the Attainment of the Millennium Development Goals related to maternal and newborn health.
The ACCESS program, in collaboration with WHO/AFRO and under funding from both the AFR/SD Bureau of USAID and USAID GH-MCH core funds to ACCESS, is responding to this request by strengthening preservice midwifery education Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania, and supporting the implementation of the Africa Road Map with a focus on activities at the country level.
The ACCESS Program, in collaboration with WHO/AFRO, is building the capacity of Francophone, Anglophone and Lusophone countries in Africa through regional workshops to develop their national road map document, and integrate and implement evidence-based maternal and newborn health interventions as part of the district health plans for their respective countries.
