Using results of a recent review of evidence for community-based child health programming, a search was conducted for NGO child health projects implementing community-based interventions that had independently verified child mortality reduction estimates, as well as population coverage data for modelling in LiST.

This document highlights four community-based delivery strategies that are common in most reports that have demonstrated improvements in child health in high-mortality, low-resource settings. These findings should be of interest to district-level managers, Ministry of Health offi cials, national-level policy makers, and donors.
