Полномасштабная реализация Стратегии, подкрепленная ориентацией на ...трановые приоритеты и планы, а также развитием успеха инициативы «Каждая женщина, каждый ребенок», позволит создать мир, в котором женщины, дети и подростки не будут сталкиваться с повышенным риском предотвратимой смертности только из-за того, где они живут или кем являются.
