Summary of Week 6 and the course

Professor Joy Lawn bring the course to a close.

Congratulations! You have completed the course! Thank you for joining us for this course and for your engagement throughout.

Over these six weeks you have taken an accelerated race through the human lifecycle via adolescent health, reproductive health, maternal health, newborn health and stillbirths, and child health. You have also seen how these areas are inter-related and how improvements in health across the lifecycle requires an approach spanning multiple sectors.

We hope that this course has inspired you and informed you about the most effective ways to bring about the changes that can and must be achieved to improve the health of women, children, and adolescents in the ten years we have left to meet the Sustainable Development Goals.
