• Rwanda has reduced maternal mortality by 30% over the past two years, according to Minister of State for Health Dr Yvan Butera, with digital health systems helping identify and monitor high-risk pregnancies.
• More than 54,000 community health workers use smartphones with an electronic medical record system to collect patient data, identify risks and follow up on pregnant women and children.
• Health centres are using ultrasound alongside information on conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes to detect high-risk pregnancies earlier and prepare for possible complications.
• Rwanda’s virtual hospital system connects district hospitals with specialists, including gynaecologists, who can remotely guide doctors through critical procedures in real time.
• Butera said the virtual hospital programme has helped save about 15 mothers’ lives since it was introduced, while Rwanda targets a further 30% reduction in maternal mortality over the next year.

At the #AWLNGlobalForum, AWLN Elders H.E. Sahle-Work Zewde, H.E. Dr. Joyce Banda and H.E. Dr. Ameenah Gurib-Fakim reflected on the realities of women navigating leadership at the highest levels.
From ensuring women have real influence in peace processes, to appointing and lifting other women, building solidarity and preparing the next generation, the dialogue carried a powerful message: women are already there, qualified and ready to lead.
Leadership is not only about reaching the top. It is about leaving the ladder in place for others to rise.

Maternal deaths have fallen 40% and child deaths more than halved in 25 years. But progress is slowing, and millions of preventable deaths continue.
Austerity is not an excuse. It is a test.
This #UNGA, my call to world leaders: protect and finance health services for women, children and adolescents. Their lives cannot be a budget cut.
