From Insight to Impact: What MNCH-N Markets Reveal—and Why It Matters

Countries are not on track to achieve Sustainable Development Goals for reducing preventable maternal, newborn, and under-five mortality by 2030. Results for Development (R4D), with support from the Gates Foundation and local partners, conducted an update to their Maternal Newborn and Child Health and Nutrition (MNCH-N) Market Assessment in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Nigeria. This update provides insights to what extent – and why – healthy market characteristics do or do not exist for MNCH-N products. Packed with data, the findings offer a clear view into the regulatory, financing, procurement, supply, quality, and pricing landscape for life-saving MNCH-N products. Join us to explore what we uncovered, why it matters, and a discussion on how these insights can drive action.
