About the Program
The program aims to catalyse the development, adoption, and scale of innovative solutions that contribute to improved maternal and child health outcomes. It seeks to build an ecosystem where enterprises and innovators can develop and strengthen technology and technology-allied solutions that enable more accessible, quality, efficient, affordable, and continuous maternal and child health services, particularly across last-mile health facilities and underserved communities.
The program envisions a future where innovation, technology, and enterprise-led solutions are meaningfully integrated into maternal and child health delivery, enabling health systems, facilities, and frontline health workers to deliver better services to women and children.
The initiative will bring together enterprises, innovators, health facilities, frontline health workers, institutions, and other ecosystem stakeholders to co-create, test, deploy, and scale solutions with the potential to transform maternal and child health delivery. The focus will be on enabling promising solutions to move beyond individual deployments towards sustainable models of adoption, replication, and scale.
For the same, we are looking to partner with a like-minded organization that shares this vision and can play an integral role in designing and implementing the initiative. The partner will support enterprise identification and engagement, solution assessment, co-creation, health-system linkages, implementation, stakeholder coordination, evidence generation, and pathways to scale, contributing to more resilient, responsive, and equitable maternal and child health services for women and children.
