The new @exemplarshealth platform tries to learn from success stories across a range of health challenges.

This is also true for maternal mortality.
There can be at a 35-fold difference (!) in maternal mortality rates for countries with the same average income level.

Around 830 women die from pregnancy-related causes on any given day. That's more than 300,000 women per year.
As the @WHO highlights, most of these deaths are preventable: who.int/news-room/fact….
If countries can learn from one another, we can accelerate progress on this.
