"This is a practical document. These twelve Knowledge Summaries focus on action and their immediate purpose is to help policy-makers and program managers turn promises made into lives saved - 16 million of them by 2015. The pledges committed towards this goal at the launch of the UN Secretary General's Global Strategy for Women's and Children's Health in September 2010 are substantial. Beyond money, commitments were made on policies and the delivery of services. Governments from north and south, foundations, civil society organizations, academics, health professionals and the private sector - all made pledges, promises and commitments."
