“Decades of progress in improving women’s, children’s and adolescents’ health (WCAH) are now under threat of reversal due to the triple combination of COVID19, conflict and climate change. Increasing threats to sexual and reproductive health (SRHR) intensify these challenges. PMNCH – the world’s largest alliance for women, children and adolescents -- is responding vigorously. By scaling up evidence-based advocacy efforts for investments, policy and service delivery, PMNCH’s 1,300 member-organizations are seeking to support country-led action and improve accountability, especially for the most vulnerable. ”
