description |
In 2000, the United Nations (UN) Member
States pledged to work towards a series of Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs), including the target of a
three-quarters reduction in the 1990 maternal mortality
ratio (MMR; maternal deaths per 100 000 live births), to be
achieved by 2015. This target (MDG 5A) and that of achieving
universal access to reproductive health (MDG 5B) together
formed the two targets for MDG 5: Improve maternal health.
In the five years counting down to the conclusion of the
MDGs, a number of initiatives were established to galvanize
efforts towards reducing maternal mortality. These included
the UN Secretary-General’s Global Strategy for Women’s and
Children’s Health, which mobilized efforts towards achieving
MDG 4 (Improve child health) as well as MDG 5, and the
high-level Commission on Information and Accountability
(COIA), which promoted “global reporting, oversight, and
accountability on women’s and children’s health”. Now,
building on the momentum generated by MDG 5, the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) establish a transformative new
agenda for maternal health towards ending preventable
maternal mortality; target 3.1 of SDG 3 is to reduce the
global MMR to less than 70 per 100 000 live births by 2030. |
