The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the use of home-based records as a complement to facility-based records, to improve care seeking behaviours, men’s involvement and support in the household, maternal and child home care practices, infant and child feeding, and communication between health workers and women, parents and caregivers.
The guide ‘Strengthening implementation of home-based records for maternal, newborn and child health: a guide for country programme managers’ was developed by the WHO, UNICEF and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) in response to the implementation needs.
Join WHO, UNICEF and JICA on April 20, 2023 at 8AM NEW YORK, 2 PM GENEVA, 9 PM TOKYO for the official launch of the implementation guide to learn how to use the guide to establish milestones to track progress against eight factors for successful implementation of home-based records and hear about country implementation experiences.
This webinar is hosted by WHO, UNICEF and JICA, with the support of the Network for Improving Quality of Care for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health and the Quality of Care subgroup of the Child Health Task Force.
