Maternal, Newborn, Child and Adolescent Health and Ageing
We lead WHO’s work on the life course so that every pregnant woman, mother, newborn, child, adolescent, and older person will survive, thrive and enjoy health and well-being.

About the Epidemiology, Monitoring and Evaluation Unit

The Epidemiology, Monitoring and Evaluation Unit focuses on monitoring that cuts across the life course. Our work focuses specifically on quality of care measurement and monitoring, policies, laws and human rights monitoring and improving routine health management data maternal, newborn, child, adolescent health and ageing.   

We are responsible for creating and maintaining the maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health ageing data portal. We also produce multiple global reports such as the Global Strategy for Women and Children, to track progress toward GPW13, triple billions and the SDGS. 

Within the department we have a monitoring and evaluation specialist included in each unit and we work together as a monitoring and evaluation thematic group.
