- In 2017, a group called WHO started a project called QCN to help reduce deaths of mothers and newborns in hospitals by 50% by 2022.

- To make the project better, it would help if each country created its own plan for improving healthcare, based on the main goals of QCN, so everyone could work together and understand their roles better.
