On June 13, the Center for Global Health and Diplomacy hosted a roundtable on maternal and child health issues. Several health ministers, CEOs of civil society organizations and government representatives from donor governments including the US (Ms. Lois Quam, the Executive Director of the Global Health Initiative and Dr. Ariel Pablos-Mendez, the USAID Assistant Administrator for Global Health) and Canada were part of the roundtable forum. Multilateral organizations were also part of the discussion including the World Bank and WHO. During the roundtable discussion commitments were made to improve maternal and child health outcomes. Through events such as these the Center for Global Health and Diplomacy (CGHD) continues to bring together stakeholders in global health. CGHD is focused on having the corporate, civil society and government partners follow up on commitments that were announced at this meeting. CGHD will be hosting follow up meetings on commitments shared at this roundtable forum in mid September in New York.
