With advocacy as PMNCH’s core function – supported by knowledge synthesis, partner engagement, campaigns and outreach – PMNCH mobilizes and resources its partners to seek changes in policy, financing and services for women, children and adolescents, and to hold each other accountable for delivering on our promises. 

PMNCH’s work concentrates on three areas: maternal, newborn and child health; sexual and reproductive health and rights; and adolescent health and well-being, to cover the continuum of care, addressing different levels of health services throughout the life course, and spanning all life phases. They also extend beyond the health sector to address the broader determinants of health.
