OBJECTIVE: To explore how to translate complex global maternal and neonatal health standards into actionable application at the facility level. METHODS: We applied a two-ste…

Benchmarking equity data against national data improves generalizability. This approach benefits social marketers and global health implementers to improve strategi…
