4 90 million lives saved in 22 years 2012: 17,000 fewer children died each day than in million children died before their 5 th birthday
5 Progress, but not fast enough.
6 Sub-Saharan Africa: a unique and urgent challenge SSA is the only region in which the under 5 population has increased since 1990, and has shown the least progress on U5MR. With the U5 population set to grow rapidly, the total number of U5 deaths may stagnate or even increase if greater progress is not made.
7 Most children die from preventable causes
8 Therefore, accelerated efforts against these main causes of child deaths are needed along the continuum of care EVERY NEWBORN: an Action Plan to end preventable deaths and The integrated Global Action Plan for Pneumonia and Diarrhoea (GAPPD)
9 RMNCH Continuum of Care
10 TOOLS medicines, diagnostics COMMUNITY CARE HEALTH SYSTEM TRUST Putting CHWs at the center: CHWs are crucial links connecting the communities they serve and the health system. SERVICES To be empowered and activated CHWs need to be provided and regularly resupplied with commodities, SUPPORT medicines, diagnostic devices, information and other job aids To be empowered and activated CHWs need to be provided with a well-orchestrated set of activities and services that support them all along their journey, from the moment they are recruited and trained to the day-to-day service they deliver to their communities, to the incentives and growth plans that are meant to keep them motivated.

12 1 2 3 Preterm birth We can reduce the main causes of death Newborn Survival Solutions 3 by 2 1. Preterm labor management including antenatal corticosteroids* 2. Care including Kangaroo mother care, essential newborn care Birth complications (and intrapartum stillbirths) 1. Prevention with obstetric care - Oxytocin, Misoprostol, MgSO4* 2. Care - essential newborn care, resuscitation equipment* Neonatal infections 1. Prevention, essential care, breastfeeding, Chlorhexidine * 2. Case management of neonatal sepsis injectable antibiotics, Amoxicillin Dispersible tablets* * Prioritized by the UN Commission on Life Saving Commodities for Women and Children Over two-thirds of newborn deaths preventable actionable now without intensive care
13 Global momentum and support for ending preventable deaths from childhood pneumonia and diarrhoea Recent events highlighting global focus: Just a few of the partners with ongoing global support for scale-up of Amoxicillin DT & ORS/zinc: UN Commission on Life Saving Commodities Global coordinated effort to scale up priority commodities, including Amoxicillin DT, ORS & zinc WHO/UNICEF: Ending preventable child deaths from pneumonia and diarrhoea by 2025 The integrated Global Action Plan for Pneumonia and Diarrhoea (GAPPD) Lancet Series on Childhood Pneumonia and Diarrhoea launched on April 12, 2013 Lancet series focused on opportunities in treating childhood pneumonia & diarrhoea
14 GAPPD Vision, Goals and Targets for 2025 Vision - Ending preventable child deaths from pneumonia and diarrhoea by 2025 Goals - For children under 5 years of age: reduce mortality from pneumonia to fewer than 3 per 1000 live births; reduce mortality from diarrhoea to fewer than 1 per 1000 live births Targets by the end of 2025: 90% access to appropriate pneumonia and diarrhoea case management (with 80% coverage in every district)
15 Framework for Protect, Prevent, Treat
16 Integrated Solutions
17 The World Health Organization has established dispersible amoxicillin as the recommended first-line treatment for pneumonia in children under five Oral amoxicillin is preferred over co-trimoxazole as first-line treatment, because it is effective against both non-severe and severe pneumonia in low-hiv settings, because of increased resistance to cotrimoxazole and lower efficacy of co-trimoxazole than amoxicillin; In high-hiv settings, amoxicillin is also preferred because oral cotrimoxazole is recommended for Pneumocystis pneumonia prophylaxis Details can be found in the WHO Recommendations for Management of Common Childhood Conditions. _conditions/en/. p

20 New pneumonia diagnostic support aids for respiratory rate and pulse oximetry are needed to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of diagnosing pneumonia in resource-poor contexts
21 Malaria Case Management Artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) is the recommended first-line treatment for malaria (artemether-lumefantrine; artesunate-amodiaquine); Home management of malaria (HMM) is a strategy to expand availability to ACT treatment in communities that have no easy to health care, and in many cases has been integrated with treatment for pneumonia and diarrhea (iccm) Since WHO policy on testing of all suspected malaria cases with RDTs and/or microscopy; A substantial proportion of fever cases are malaria neg. and thus incorrectly treated with anti-malaria drugs; Also significant overlap in symptoms between malaria and pneumonia - pneumonia often undertreated in primarily malaria-supported treatment programs Scale up of RDT use by CHWs is now imperative, coupled with support for comprehensive management of the sick child at the community level (iccm)
22 Intermittent Preventive Treatment for Malaria in Children (IPTc) Seasonal Malarial Chemoprophylaxis (SMC) A complete treatment course of AQ+SP at monthly intervals to a maximum of four doses during the malaria transmission season should be given to children aged 3-59 months as Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention in areas of highly seasonal malaria transmission across the West Africa Sahel Sub-Region (where both drugs retain sufficient antimalarial efficacy); Target areas for implementation are areas where more than 60% of clinical malaria cases occur within a maximum of 4 months; Where possible, integration into existing integrated Community Case Management and Community Health Workers programs is recommended.
