How PASB will deliver
Key Technical Cooperation Interventions
Step up leadership
Update national laws, policies, strategies, or plans of action advancing the integration of interventions for women’s, children’s, and adolescents’ health based on the Plan of Action for Women’s, Children’s, and Adolescents’ Health 2018–2030, and advocate for the application of the life course approach.
Support countries
• Support the implementation and evaluation of the coverage of evidence-based interventions to reduce preventable morbidity and mortality and promote health and well-being by promoting the implementation of guidelines and standards and strengthening the competencies of human resources. • Develop and implement integrated and multisectoral actions to promote the health and well-being of women, mothers, newborns, children, adolescents, and men in accordance with global and regional mandates.
Produce technical products on norms and standards, data, and research
• Improve the quality and use of strategic information, with emphasis on universal access and coverage for women, children, and adolescents. Strengthen information systems to monitor and evaluate the quality of care and use of cost-effective interventions, with special emphasis on the measurement and effective reduction of inequities in underserved and vulnerable groups. Promote operational research through local and regional networks to improve the epidemiological surveillance of sentinel events. • Improve accessibility and quality of care related to essential interventions with a focus on vulnerable groups (e.g., small and sick newborns) through the development of guidelines, information for decision making, and training materials.
