Supporting women, parents and families for a positive postnatal experience: key information for advocates

Postnatal care is essential for all women, their babies, and families during the first few weeks after birth. Yet, coverage and quality of postnatal care remains suboptimal. We invite those who advocate for improved health and health service experiences for women, newborns, parents, and families to join efforts for increasing the quality of postnatal care, so that every woman and every newborn receives the care they need to survive and thrive.
