With the launch of a new report by Save the Children this week, the momentum to achieve substantial reductions in neonatal mortality is accelerating. Ending Newborn Deaths: Ensuring Every Baby Survives is a continuation of Save the Children’s No Child Born to Die campaign. The report presents a powerful reminder of the reasons for neonatal deaths, identifies eight essential areas for intervention, and proposes a five-point Newborn Promise plan to end all preventable newborn deaths, which governments and others should commit to this year.
