In 2018, the Stillbirth Advocacy Working Group (SAWG) of the International Stillbirth Alliance (ISA) created a Global Scorecard for Ending Preventable Stillbirths. The purpose of the scorecard was to gather and display key data to monitor the implementation of the Call to Action presented in the 2016 Lancet Ending Preventable Stillbirths series, highlighting areas of progress, identifying where data gaps prevent performance assessment, and indicating where further action is necessary. This project aims to showcase the scorecard’s value for stillbirth prevention advocacy, policy, and program initiatives a the global level by comparing regional performance against the Call to Action for the years 2022 and 2018.
