A programme review for maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (MNCAH) is a process for assessing mid- or end-term country progress in improving the health of women, newborns, children and adolescents. A programme review is conducted at the national or subnational level as part of the regular MNCAH programme planning and implementation cycle. The purpose of this guide is to assist countries in planning and facilitating an integrated review of MNCAH programmes. The guide provides a recommended approach for conducting MNCAH programme reviews, however, it is not intended to be prescriptive, and the processes should be adapted to suit the needs of a country or programme. A facilitator’s guide and an MNCAH programme review data tool complement the guide. These resources help in assessing the results that MNCAH programmes have achieved, identifying gaps in intervention implementation, and providing recommendations and solutions to improve the health status of women, newborns, children and adolescents. The main audience for the guide includes: - national and subnational programme managers and officers from MNCAH involved in planning, implementing and monitoring programmes within a ministry of health; - programme managers and officers in related programmes in a ministry of health or other ministry; - nongovernmental, private-sector and international partners involved in planning, implementing and funding MNCAH programmes.

The eighth meeting of the Strategic and Technical Advisory Group of Experts (STAGE) for maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and nutrition (MNCAHN) was held in Geneva on 14–16 November 2023. Most of the STAGE members attended in person while five attended the meeting online. They were joined by WHO staff at headquarters and online from regional offices, and 50 observers from partner organizations. The meeting agenda included three new topics (maternal well-being, birth defects and complementary feeding) and detailed updates on various topics from the previous meetings (maternal newborn stillbirth transition framework, maternal and newborn health (MNH) commodities, midwifery models of care, caregiver practices as part of child and adolescent health well-being, and kangaroo mother care (KMC)). The preparatory work included meetings either with existing working groups of STAGE or with small subgroups with the co-chairs of the two workstreams and select STAGE members. These groups provided inputs to the WHO technical teams for the preparation of background information and for the presentations to STAGE. The open sessions on each day enabled inputs from STAGE members, WHO regional offices and observers from various organizations, while the closed sessions with STAGE members helped consolidate the STAGE recommendations. These were further finetuned through online consultations with the members and the final STAGE recommendations are provided in this report.
