G8 Watch 2010
G8 in the press
There has been a great deal written in the press—in particular, the Canadian press—about the maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH) in relation to the G8 Initiative announced by the government there. Our regular feature -- MNCH IN THE NEWS -- is a bi-weekly feature which highlights the top global news stories concerning MNCH. This year, a majority of the clippings come from Canada in the continuing discussion and debate about the MNCH G8 Initiative of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s government.
In the box below find highlights of some of the many clippings and articles which have been published in 2010 on the G8 and MNCH.
