Book excerpt: A programme review for maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (MNCAH) is a process for assessing mid- or end-term country progress in improving the health of women, newborns, children and adolescents. A programme review is conducted at the national or subnational level as part of the regular MNCAH programme planning and implementation cycle. The purpose of this facilitators’ guide is to assist countries in planning and facilitating an integrated review of MNCAH programmes at national and subnational level. It complements the Guide for conducting national and subnational programme reviews for maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health and the MNCAH programme review data tool. This facilitators’ guide outlines the main steps for coordinating and implementing a programme review for MNCAH, including: preparing for the programme review process; gathering data and information; planning and facilitating a programme review workshop; and reporting findings of the programme review. However these processes should be adapted to suit the needs of the setting where it is being used. It is intended for those organizing and facilitating a programme review for MNCAH. To assist in facilitating a programme review workshop, a suggested overview presentation and templates for group work are available.
