World priorities and targets in maternal and child health for the year 2000.
By the year 2000, 230 million more women of reproductive age and over 300 million more children over 15, will be living in developing countries. This will present a great challenge to the health systems of the world. The member states of the World Health Organization have unanimously agreed to work together to attain the noble goal of health for all by the year 2000. A set of indicators have been developed to monitor progress, many of which relate to the health status of women and children.
