- Description
- USAID's Advisory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Aid Public Meeting on Ending Preventable Child and Maternal Deaths Wednesday, July 13, 2016 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm * Join USAID and the Advisory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Aid (ACVFA) for a discussion about the progress and future of efforts to End Preventable Child and Maternal Deaths. Since 1990, the world has cut child and maternal mortality in half, largely considered one of the greatest successes in international development. But challenges remain, with too many women and children still dying from things like diarrhea, postpartum bleeding, and neonatal infections following birth. As we near the end of the Administration, it is time to look critically at what is working and what isn't, and make a plan to sustain and build on these achievements into the future. Where and how can we further focus and maximize impact? How is the global development community collectively measuring success? What is the best way to talk about our efforts to keep up momentum and support? And how can we make sure our collective efforts are financed in a comprehensive and sustainable way? This discussion will provide business, nonprofit, and government perspectives on our ability to significantly curtail preventable child and maternal deaths in increasingly interconnected global development efforts. Read the ACVFA Ending Preventable Child and Maternal Deaths Working Group's recommendations here. Keynote remarks: -- Gayle Smith, Administrator, USAID Featured discussants: -- Dr. Priya Agrawal, Executive Director, Merck for Mothers --Elizabeth Fox, Deputy Child and Maternal Survival Coordinator, USAID -- Mark Shriver, President, Save the Children Action Network --Eshete Yilma, Health Systems Strengthening Team Leader, USAID/Ethiopia Location Horizon Ballroom Ronald Reagan Building Washington, DC Map & Directions Nearest metro stop: Federal Triangle/Metro Center Entrance: Please use the entrance on 13th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue For additional information, contact: acvfa@usaid.gov RSVP for this event *Registration will open at 2:00 pm
