So great to see Madeline Vaughan CEO of Adara Group at #SkollWF talking #newborn survival. New Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) data show newborn disorders #1 cause of death across #Africa in 2020 & #2 in 2021 after #COVID. This can change. With more investments in proven models like #AdaraNewborn
Excellent insights from #ScalingWithGovernment at #SkollWF hosted by Spring Impact Grand Challenges Canada & Global Innovation Fund. Important lessons as we scale #AdaraNewborn across #Uganda to halve #maternal and #newborn deaths and stillbirths with Ministry of Health- Uganda.

In our Clinton Global Initiative session, Peter Waiswa highlighted the urgent need to double down on #maternal & #newborn care in #Uganda to meet the #SDGS & save lives. “For newborns, Uganda has made progress. But still there is much to be done.” #AdaraNewborn is part of the solution.
At our Clinton Global Initiative "deeper dive" event, Bonita Birungi shared why ELMA Philanthropies is investing in #newborn health in #Uganda, plus why they’re an #AdaraNewborn cornerstone investor. “[We] invest catalytically and strategically to ensure we are identifying models that work.”
Why is investment into #maternal & #newbornhealth so critical in Uganda? Richard Mugahi from Ministry of Health- Uganda shared his insights in our deep-dive event, hosted by Clinton Global Initiative. #AdaraNewborn is a community-based solution that aligns with the model the Ministry is advocating for.
