About the Program
Development Consortium in collaboration with Ansh is working to transform maternal and newborn care in
India. Our flagship intervention Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) is an endorsed, scientifically proven, and cost-effective method to reduce neonatal mortality and morbidity in low birth weight and preterm infants.

reducing hypothermia.

We now have more than 130 on-ground full-time staff, 4 implementation partners, and 9 core team members
delivering our programs in 10 District Hospitals. We estimate a neonatal mortality reduction of 33−50% as a result of Ansh programs, and plan to scale our life-saving work to 15 District Hospitals across Rajasthan by the end of the year.
