The U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, is heavily invested in ensuring that all women and children have the same chance of a healthy life, regardless of where they are born.

美国国际开发署投入了大量资金，以确保所有妇女和儿童无论出生在何处，都能享有同样的健康生活机会。

Focusing on 25 priority countries that together account for over two-thirds of maternal and child deaths worldwide, USAID’s maternal and child survival efforts, which include voluntary family planning, have helped save the lives of more than 9.3 million children and 340,000 women over the past decade.

美国国际开发署把重点放在25个占全球孕产妇和儿童死亡总数三分之二以上的重点国家，包括自愿计划生育在内的孕产妇和儿童生存努力，在过去十年中帮助拯救了930多万儿童和34万名妇女的生命。

USAID does not go it alone, but works with partners at the community level and at every level of government, as well as with international organizations and non-governmental organizations. USAID acts as a catalyst for new ideas, and works with partners to assure that women and children have access to high-quality health care and basic interventions that can save, and have saved, millions of lives.

美国国际开发署并非单打独斗，而是与社区、各级政府以及国际组织和非政府组织合作。美国国际开发署作为新思想的催化剂，与合作伙伴合作，确保妇女和儿童能够获得能够拯救数百万人生命的高质量的卫生保健和基本干预措施。

To that end, USAID recently introduced MOMENTUM, a suite of awards that together can provide a comprehensive, flexible package of financing and technical assistance to help partner countries build capacity to plan, finance, and implement solutions to their own health challenges, and ensure that there is commitment to see these solutions through effectively, inclusively, and with accountability.

为此，美国国际开发署最近推出了“动力”计划，这是一套综合的、灵活的一揽子资助和技术援助计划，旨在帮助伙伴国家建立计划、资助和实施解决方案的能力，以应对自身的健康挑战，并确保各方承诺有效、包容、负责地解决这些问题。

In late December, USAID announced two new MOMENTUM global health awards meant to accelerate reductions in maternal, newborn, and child mortality and morbidity.

12月下旬，美国国际开发署宣布了两项新的全球健康动力奖，旨在加速降低孕产妇、新生儿和儿童的死亡率和发病率。

The first of these, MOMENTUM 2A, is a five-year award of up to $100 million that will support countries’ Journeys to Self-Reliance by providing targeted technical assistance and capacity development to USAID's Missions, partner governments, and local organizations. As well, it will help contribute to global technical leadership and policy dialogue on improving measurable outcomes for maternal, reproductive, newborn, and child health and voluntary family planning.

第一个项目是“动力2A”，为期5年，最高可达1亿美元，通过向美国国际开发署的特派团、伙伴政府和当地组织提供有针对性的技术援助和能力开发，支持各国实现自力更生。此外，它将有助于促进全球技术领导和政策对话，以改善孕产妇、生殖、新生儿和儿童健康和自愿计划生育方面的可衡量成果。

Momentum 2C is a five-year award of up to $30 million that focuses on monitoring and evaluation, knowledge management, and the translation of learning across all MOMENTUM projects, in an effort to evaluate and communicate the impact of USAID's investments on maternal, newborn, reproductive, and child health and voluntary family planning at the global and country levels.

“动力2A”是一个高达3000万美元的五年奖，重点是监测和评价、知识管理、学习所有动力的翻译项目，为了评估和沟通美国国际开发署的投资对孕产妇的影响，新生儿、生殖、和儿童健康和自愿在全球和国家计划生育水平。

Through MOMENTUM, USAID will provide countries the support they need as they move towards self-reliance for health.

通过这一势头，美国国际开发署将向各国提供它们在实现卫生自力更生方面所需的支持。

Surviving childbirth and early childhood should not be a matter of luck, where you live, or how much money you have. Together with partners, USAID is working to make that a reality.

在分娩和幼儿期幸存下来、住在哪里、或者有多少钱不应该是运气的问题。美国国际开发署正与合作伙伴一道努力使这一目标成为现实。
