The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.

In this research, I have tried to probe in to aspects of reproductive health of the women dwelling in the urban slums with the understanding that slum is a complex of the larger socio-cultural milieu. Individuals or households of the slum setting practice their health activities with different sets of economic, social and cultural belongings. In the appearance of new socio-economic and physical environment, the people residing in slum areas perpetuate their cultural and institutional health care resources available and accessible to them and thus, develop a particular health behavioral pattern for dealing with the heterogeneous urban day to day life. The main objective of the study is to analyze and assess the determinants of utilization of reproductive child health (RCH) services. With in this context, to ascertain the extent of health services and to know the socio-economic-demographic factors influencing the utilization of reproductive and child health services. In the various chapters of the present study the diverse dimensions of reproductive and child health services have been dealt with. Chapter I talks about the scenario of urban poor and their health status.

India's Family Welfare Program was launched in 1951, and has made limited gains in improving the health of mothers and children. However, the approach was, for a very long time, mainly geared towards achieving demographic targets. During the late 80s and early 90s, global focus shifted away from mere population control to one that emphasizes that individuals should have the ability to reproduce and regulate their fertility, and that women should be free from the fear of pregnancy and disease. India has since then adapted its own programs to reflect this change. With some of the highest maternal mortality, infant mortality, and under-five mortality rates in the world, India has a long way to go. While socio-economic factors have always been offered as the primary reason for low levels of utilization of reproductive and child health services (RCH) in India, this paper seeks to make an important contribution by highlighting that much of the problem is hidden in the quantity and quality of these services, and attempts to identify key inputs on the delivery side that could lead to significant improvement in India's RCH indicators.

Globally estimates of maternal mortality indicate that more than half a million women died due to pregnancy related causes and these deaths are unjust and can be avoided with key health interventions, like provision of antenatal care and medically assisted delivery. The prime objective of book is to examine the trend of economic inequalities in utilization of RCH services in India and to quantify the contribution of selected factors explaining the rural-urban gap in use of RCH care utilization by using the NFHS-1,2,3 data. To fulfill the aforesaid objectives concentration index and non-linear decomposition technique have been used. The study reveals a sluggish increase in the utilization of RCH services in India with respect of place of residence. The trends of economic inequalities in utilization of RCH services are decreasing in both urban and rural areas but the pace of declining is more in rural areas than urban areas during the study period. Decomposition results indicates that economic status of the household is the main contributor in urban-rural differential in receiving the reproductive and child health care services followed by mother education level and media exposure.

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, decision-makers in affected countries have acted quickly to address the immediate health effects of the pandemic and to put into place public health and social measures to slow or stop the spread of COVID-19. In order to preserve the gains made in maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health in the last decades and avoid negative impacts due to the pandemic, the global community quickly mobilized to advocate for protecting the health of these populations. Since May 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO), through its headquarters, regional and country office teams, has supported 19 countries in five WHO Regions (see Figure 1) to raise the profile of and commitment to maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and ageing (MNCAAH)b through an Initiative on mitigating the indirect impacts of COVID-19 on MNCAAH services. The goal was to ensure that during the response to COVID-19, actions would be taken to mitigate indirect effects on MNCAAH due to disruptions to service provision and use.

Adolescence is a time of major transition, however, health care services in the United States today are not designed to help young people develop healthy routines, behaviors, and relationships that they can carry into their adult lives. While most adolescents at this stage of life are thriving, many of them have difficulty gaining access to necessary services; other engage in risky behaviors that can jeopardize their health during these formative years and also contribute to poor health outcomes in adulthood. Missed opportunities for disease prevention and health promotion are two major problematic features of our nation's health services system for adolescents. Recognizing that health care providers play an important role in fostering healthy behaviors among adolescents, Adolescent Health Services examines the health status of adolescents and reviews the separate and uncoordinated programs and services delivered in multiple public and private health care settings. The book provides guidance to administrators in public and private health care agencies, health care workers, guidance counselors, parents, school administrators, and policy makers on investing in, strengthening, and improving an integrated health system for adolescents.
