Headline Maternal and Child Health in the WHO African region

Description Ethiopia 9 was the project name of a scheme to overcome in Ethiopia what was no doubt the greatest obstacle to health progress in the world: the shortage of health workers. Ethiopia 9 was centred in Gondar, capital of Begemder Province, near Lake Tana, in north-west Ethiopia. Its aims were: a) to provide a centre for training auxiliary personnel b) to organise a model health service c) to investigate local health conditions d) to extend health services to the whole country. Ethiopia 9 came into being in 1952, a joint activity of the Ethiopian Government, UNICEF, WHO and the US International Co-operation Administration.

This happy Ethiopian mother and child were photographed in the seven-bed maternity ward at Gonder which is run by a WHO staff member and has its outward extension in the form of a home delivery service. Activities for mother and child health in and around Gondar includes milk-distribution, home visiting and much health education.
