progress made today:

Progress has been made in maternal and child health
"The presence of qualified, skilled midwives and midwives is essential to reducing maternal and newborn morbidity and mortality. Globally, in the period 2015-2021, an estimated 84 percent of births were assisted by skilled health professionals, including doctors, nurses and midwives. This was an increase from 77 percent in the period 2008-2014. However, coverage in sub-Saharan Africa was 20 percentage points lower than the global average.

Progress has also been made in under-5 and neonatal mortality, although far too many children continue to die. The global under-five mortality rate fell by 5 percent from 14 to 2015 - from 2020 to 43 deaths per 37 live births." unstats.un.org(2022)
