Merck for Mothers Launches New Report: Innovative Financing For Better Maternal Health Outcomes
The cost to end preventable maternal deaths by 2030 is an estimated $115.5 billion, according to the United Nations Population Fund. With just $11.9 billion in development assistance coming to 120 priority countries over the next 10 years, that leaves a $103.4 billion investment gap.
To help close this gap, Merck for Mothers is driving new thinking and new action in health financing – with the aim of scaling promising solutions for better maternal health.
