  • Studies of the World Health Organization show that 4 million children die per year during their first month of life. From these deaths, more than one million (27%) occur in India.
  • The implementation of whole KMC (medical and psychological components) help to diminish the infant (premature babies) mortality rate.
  • Due to, not only the necessity of saving infant´s lives but also to guarantee their high life quality and their adequate entire development, it is necessary to begin to develop training and research projects that help, not only to decrease childish mortality in India but also, to promote an entire development of the newborn premature.
