The researcher Fernando C. Wehrmeister, took part of the Safe Mothers and Newborn Leadership Workshop, representing the International Center for Equity in Health. The activity was held in Nairobi, Kenya, from 11th to 16th of June 2017 and organized by a partnership between Harvard T. Chan School of Public Health and Aga Khan University and ISGlobal.

His talk was related to the progress in reducing health inequalities in reproductive, maternal, neonatal and child health in Latin America and Caribbean region. Besides the important progress achieved in coverage for RMNCH interventions, inequalities are still a problem to be addressed not only in Latin America but also in all low and middle income countries around the world.
