Kangaroo Mother Care

A very simple solution is helping to reduce the number of pre-term babies in Malawi who die due to low birth weight. The Kangaroo Mother Care program, supported by USAID and Save the Children, teaches mothers how to increase the body temperatures of their newborns by wrapping the babies to their bare chests.
