PATH has received a grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to develop a dynamic database to describe and track the global, national, and sub-national uptake of nine Maternal, Newborn, Child Health & Nutrition (MNCHN) “assets” (e.g. tools, diagnostics, devices, drugs, and interventions) and their population coverage across the maternal newborn child health continuum. Using innovative implementation science approaches and existing data, the PATH team will identify common bottlenecks to the effective scale of these assets across various contexts and will develop theories of change, supported by in-depth country studies, to determine how to leapfrog or unblock these. Each of the nine asset “technical resources teams” will be led by a content expert with support from a pool of research associates and interns who will work across assets and data sources to develop theories of change, collate existing data, and support the development of database and visualization tools.
