What should development economists be working on—and how does research actually influence policy? @CGDev President @rglenner joins @OliverHanney, Managing Editor at @vox_dev, on Ideas in Development to discuss the micro vs. macro debate, academic consensus, evidence uptake, and research priorities in development economics. voxdev.org/topic/methods-…
Neonatal sepsis kills one newborn every 45 seconds, or 400,000-700,000 deaths per year. A rapid, accurate point-of-care test could save 100,000-280,000 newborn lives in low and middle-income countries and reduce the unnecessary use of antibiotics by more than half. @CGDev has a thoughtful, detailed proposal for a $60 million fund to accelerate the development and adoption of an effective test, including an Advance Market Commitment. I hope philanthropists will consider supporting this! See a link to the proposal in the replies.
Every 45 seconds, a newborn dies from neonatal sepsis. A new report from a joint CGD and @UChi_MSA working group proposes a $60M advance market commitment to accelerate rapid diagnostics for neonatal sepsis. The proposal could save 100,000+ newborn lives over a decade. cgdev.org/publication/ne…
