United Republic of Tanzania Maternal and Child Health Data

Tanzania 2015

The Countdown country profile presents in one place the best and latest evidence to enable an assessment of progress in improving reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) and achieving MDGs 4 and 5. The profile presents the most recent available information at the time it was published on selected demographic measures, coverage rates for priority interventions across the continuum of care, and indicators of equity, policy support, human resources, and financial flows. Missing values, or estimates that are more than five years old, indicate an urgent need for concerted action to increase data collection efforts.

During 2013-2014, a  Tanzanian-led esearch team has conducted a Countdown Country Case Study in Tanzania, in order to better understand where there has and has not been progress, and to identify who is being left behind for RMNCH. Detailed information on the case study and related activities in Tanzania can be viewed here and here.

The final Countdown to 2015 country profile for United Republic of Tanzania —  a full two-page profile featuring a range of coverage, equity, policy, health systems, and financing indicators – was published in October 2015 in A Decade of Tracking Progress for Maternal, Newborn and Child Survival: The 2015 Report, which was launched at the Global Maternal & Newborn Health Conference in Mexico City.
