For every 1,000 children who contract the disease, one or two will die. This isn’t just a setback—it’s a clear warning. Vaccines are one of the most cost-effective ways to save lives, and they’ve already saved millions. Supporting programs that ensure they reach everyone, everywhere must be an international priority.

For mothers who experience postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), timing is everything. Medical teams needed a solution that could help mothers in crisis before it was too late. The solution? E-MOTIVE. This innovative approach provides midwives, nurses, and doctors with a standard set of interventions, from uterine massages to the types of medicines to use, as a mother’s PPH escalates. In tandem with calibrated PPH drapes, this bundled protocol has transformed maternal care in Makueni County, Kenya: they have not seen a single death from PPH in two years. Continued investment is crucial to ensure innovations like this continue to save the lives of moms. Governments must deliver on funding commitments for health and development that make work like this possible.
