India Newborn Action Plan

India Newborn Action Plan (INAP) was launched in September 2014,  for accelerating the reduction of preventable newborn deaths and stillbirths in the country - with the goal of attaining ‘Single Digit Neo-natal Mortality Rate (NMR) by 2030’ and ‘Single Digit Still Birth Rate (SBR) by 2030’. Currently, there are estimated 7.47 lakh neonatal deaths annually.The neo-natal deaths are expected to reduce to below 2.28 lakh annually by 2030, once the goal is achieved.

The India Newborn Action Plan (INAP) is India’s committed response to the Global Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP), launched in June 2014 at the 67th World Health Assembly, to advance the Global Strategy for Women’s and Children’s Health.

Goals

  1. Ending Preventable Newborn Deaths to achieve “Single Digit NMR” by 2030, with all the states to individually achieve this target by 2035.
  2. Ending Preventable Stillbirths to achieve “Single Digit SBR” by 2030, with all the states to individually achieve this target by 2035

Snapshot of India Newborn Action Plan (INAP)

  • Builds on existing commitments under the National Health Mission and 'Call to Action' for Child Survival and Development
  • Aligns with the Global Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP); defines commitments based on specific contextual needs of the country
  • Aims at attaining Single Digit Neonatal Mortality Rate by 2030, five years ahead of the global plan
  • Emphasizes strengthened surveillance mechanism for tracking stillbirths
  • Focuses on ending preventable newborn deaths, improving quality of care and care beyond survival
  • Prioritizes those babies that are born too soon, too small, or sick—as they account for majority of all newborn deaths
  • Aspires towards ensuring equitable progress for girls and boys, rural and urban, rich and poor, and between districts and states
  • Identifies major guiding principles under the overarching principle of Integration: Equity, Gender, Quality of Care, Convergence, Accountability, and Partnerships
  • Defines six pillars of interventions: Pre-conception and antenatal care; Care during labour and child birth; Immediate newborn care; Care of healthy newborn; Care of small and sick newborn; and Care beyond newborn survival
  • Serves as a framework for states/districts to develop their own action plan with measurable indicators
