The World Health Organization recently completed analyses, showing how four readily assessable, child-level characteristics can identify infants and young children who are at high risk of mortality. This enables targeted care for children at high risk and also may optimize interventions for children at low risk. Please join us on September 4 for a webinar, Risk-differentiated care: A paradigm shift to improve child mortality. We'll hear from Nigel Rollins, WHO scientist, who will share the risk stratification analyses findings and discuss programmatic options and next steps. The conversation will be moderated by Akriti Singh, PhD, Helen Keller Intl and Erin Boyd, USAID. We hope to see you there! 📆 Wednesday, September 4 ⏰ 9:00–10:00 am EDT / 15:00–16:00 CET / 16:00–17:00 EAT / 18:30–19:30 IST 🔗 Register to join: https://lnkd.in/eiNpCU8y Photo: Kate Holt/USAID MCSP #GlobalHealth #ChildHealth #webinar #ChildMortality
