In a bid to spread the message on newborn health,we intend to start a Radio Programme very soon.
We met with a local radio station today to discuss the terms.We intend to have very educative and interactive sessions on the airwaves.It is also our hope that this will help build our brand and get thousands on the campaign trail for newborn health.There is more to come…………..
Watch this space!
When the Campaign gets viral…….its exciting!
A number of recent events have strengthened our resolve to keep working for newborn health inspite of several challenges.It is exciting to see other individuals and organizations equally committed to the promotion of maternal and newborn health.
Over the last few weeks,we have noticed with great pleasure the efforts by the Ghana Health Service and the Tamale Teaching Hospital(TTH) to improve maternal and newborn Health under the Millennium Development Goal Acceleration Framework(MAF) initiative.We have approached the MAF secretariat at TTH to see how best we can collaborate and have been happy with the response so far.
Our excitement was heightened after reading a news item about how a single doctor has worked to reduce maternal deaths in Dodowa,a town in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. To us,every mother saved is a baby saved and so we are very grateful to this great doctor.Reading through the full article at http://edition.myjoyonline.com/pages/news/201308/111987.php is sure to inspire hope in all.
We look forward to reading about many more efforts towards this single priceless goal to save mothers and their babies.
