Jhpiego Innovations Program

To address both emerging and intractable global health problems and save lives, Jhpiego’s Innovations Program and its partners are developing scalable technology and program innovations that have the potential to vastly improve the health of women and children. Our integrated approach encompasses extensive gap analyses to understanding public health and clinical needs, continuous iterations of human-centric design that incorporate user feedback and new evidence, and strategic planning to leverage opportunities for sustainable implementation. Jhpiego’s technology innovations are designed to enable frontline health workers to detect, prevent and treat leading causes of maternal morbidity and mortality, including pre-eclampsia/eclampsia, maternal anemia, prolonged labor, cervical cancer and postpartum hemorrhage. We are also implementing novel, interactive training approaches to improve the clinical capacity of service providers and quality of care.
