Project Report (
14 October 2008 )
 In 2006, CEDPA introduced a complementary initiative to its training programs: a year-long professional coaching program designed to extend participants’ learning beyond the workshop setting to sustain their personal and professional growth and performance. This groundbreaking program now includes 58 seasoned coaches from around the world, who are working with over 100 clients to help them overcome performance barriers and advance to leadership positions. A new report details an evaluation of the first year of the program, including an extensive survey and interview process to document results, best practices, and areas for future expansion. Most clients reported that they gained specific skills and achieved a particular goal as a result of their participation. Eighty-one percent surveyed recommended that CEDPA continue the coaching program.

21 September 2008 )
 More women in India die during pregnancy and childbirth than in any other country in the world, a number that accounts for 20 percent of the world’s maternal deaths. Sadly, the majority of these deaths can be prevented though access to skilled attendants and emergency obstetric care facilities and supplies. With funding from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), a new consortium of global organizations is working to save the lives of women and children in India by building capacity within the country to improve policies, programs and resources in the areas of maternal, neonatal and child health, and nutrition.
