About the book

Every minute, at least one woman dies from pregnancy or childbirth complications; a further 20 suffer injury, infection or disease. Despite medical advances, and years of national and international policy declarations, this situation remains particularly severe in developing countries. This book draws together insights and experiences of development practitioners, policy makers, academic experts and private sector partners to describe the Women's Health Initiative (WHI), a public private partnership based in India. Informed by growing literature on such partnerships, the WHI sought to implement a project that would make a real difference in women's lives, simultaneous with meeting private sector commercial imperatives.--Publisher's description
