Over the last twenty years, Uganda has experienced slow progress in reduction of child and maternal mortality rates (MDG 4 and 5). We have the tools and knowledge to change that trajectory to bring an end to preventable deaths; with greater participation of all partners and stakeholders, a change in focus, and commitment to hold ourselves accountable. Uganda has developed this evidence-based country plan to address the slow progress on MDG 4&5 targets. The plan examines why the country is making slow progress in attaining the targets; reviews the maternal, newborn and child mortality and morbidity situation in Uganda; sets an agenda for how to accelerate progress; establishes the time horizon for the acceleration to the MDG targets; and proposes five strategic shifts in doing business differently or greater impact. The plan is aligned with Uganda��s Vision 2040, and is anchored in the National Development Plan (NDP) 2010/11 - 2014/15
