Thinking beyond maternal mortality
In 2012, WHO initiated a five‐year project, funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, with the aim of developing the evidence base on maternal morbidity through improving the scientific basis for defining, measuring (and estimating), and monitoring it. The aim was to close the gap between measuring morbidity for programmatic purposes and assessing its actual impact on a woman's life The International Journal
of Gynecology & Obstetrics has published a new Supplement on reconceptualising and measuring maternal morbidity,
published in conjunction with the WHO Department of Reproductive Health and
Research as a result of the project.
