Maternal and child health is a crucial public health concern due to the following reasons:
- There is a chance to eliminate preventable deaths among women, children, and adolescents while significantly enhancing their health and overall well-being.
- Many women, infants, and children globally lack access to vital health services and education, clean air and water, as well as proper sanitation and nutrition.
- Committing to prevention, healthcare, and education has long-lasting benefits throughout a person's lifetime.
