Effective coverage practice in Ethiopia
Effective coverage measurement has emerged as a tool to help understand health system performance for the provision of high-quality health care. Using a cascade approach that combines data on demand- and supply-side steps, effective coverage measures highlight where gaps in the health system exist and how improvements might be made so that more people benefit from the potential of the health services available to them. In practice, however, there…
Piloting Multiple Micronutrient Supplementation Within the Routine Antenatal Care System in Ethiopia
In low and middle-income countries, addressing maternal and child nutrition needs is crucial. Prenatal multiple micronutrient supplementation (MMS) holds promise in reducing low birthweight and preterm births. Ethiopia is considering a transition from the provision of iron-folate supplementation to the provision of MMS in antenatal care, guided by WHO guidelines. This paper explores stakeholders' early perceptions and experiences in piloting that…

BACKGROUND: Building a culture of quality is vital for sustaining high-quality healthcare, emphasising shared values and continuous improvement. The Quality Equity and Dignity (QED) network was a global initiative working toward this objective, focusing on maternal and newborn health. This paper aims to describe how QED influenced five identified attributes of quality culture in Ethiopia: leadership, people-centered interventions, collaboration, …
Influences on policy-formulation, decision-making, organisation and management for maternal, newborn and child health in Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Malawi and Uganda
The Network for Improving Quality of Care for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (QCN) is intended to facilitate learning, action, leadership and accountability for improving quality of care in member countries. This requires legitimacy—a network’s right to exert power within national contexts. This is reflected, for example, in a government’s buy-in and perceived ownership of the work of the network. During 2019–2022 we conducted iterative round…
Individual, organizational and system circumstances, and the functioning of a multi-country implementation-focused network for maternal, newborn and child health
Better policies, investments, and programs are needed to improve the integration and quality of maternal, newborn, and child health services. Previously, partnerships and collaborations that involved multiple countries with a unified aim have been observed to yield positive results. Since 2017, the WHO and partners have hosted the Quality of Care Network [QCN], a multi-country implementation network focused on improving maternal, neonatal, and ch…
“We don’t trust all data coming from all facilities”
BACKGROUND: Good quality data are a key to quality health care. In 2017, WHO has launched the Quality of Care Network (QCN) to reduce maternal, newborn and stillbirth mortality via learning and sharing networks. Guided by the principle of equity and dignity, the network members agreed to implement the programme in 2017-2021. OBJECTIVE: This paper seeks to explore how QCN has contributed to improving data quality and to identify factors influencin…
