Abstract

The article discusses a study which assessed the effectiveness of community mobilisation through participatory women's groups to improve birth outcomes in poor rural communities in three districts in India. The researchers assigned 18 clusters to intervention or control using stratified randomisation from 36 clusters in Jharkhand and Orissa. Strategies were implemented to address maternal and newborn health problems. It was discovered that there were reductions in neonatal mortality rate and maternal depression scores.
