UNFPA MHTF 2019-2024
In 2008 The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) launched the Maternal and Newborn Health Thematic Fund (MHTF). MHTF is a thematic fund aiming at improving maternal and newborn health and wellbeing in countries with high burden of maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity by supporting the strengthening of the countries health systems. The goal of the MHTF in Phase III is to support countries to ensure the health, survival and rights of every woman, adolescent girl and newborn. The fund assists countries with high burdens of maternal and newborn mortality and morbidity in strengthening health systems to provide equitable and accountable access to quality sexual, reproductive, maternal and newborn health care. Sida has supported Phase I (2008-2013) and Phase II (2013-2017) of MHTF and this contribution refers to Phase III (2019-2022) and part of UNFPA’s strategic plan (2018-2021). Phase III is driven by a more comprehensive SRHR agenda and inclusion of newborn health. Further, Phase III of MHTF has a more pronounced focus on adolescents reproductive and sexual health and rights, access to safe abortion and post-abortion care, and support throughout women and girl’s lifespan.
