- Summary:
- Jim Yong Kim, President of the World Bank Group, discusses children's and women's health as absolutely crucial to the core mission of expanding prosperity and ending poverty. He speaks about helping ensure a continuum of care from family planning to pregnancy and safe delivery, to post-natal care, newborn and child health. He discusses designing innovative programs that link financing to results, producing dramatic gains in both access and quality of health care for poor women and children and, most importantly, helping countries put in place strong health systems. He concludes by saying that donors and development partners have a special obligation to harmonize aid efforts and remove any bottlenecks to effective service delivery.
