Healthy Mothers
Healthy Babies
Powering women's nutrition for promising futures.
The Healthy Mothers Healthy Babies Consortium (HMHB), hosted by the Micronutrient Forum, is the central platform for evidence, knowledge, collaboration, and advocacy in maternal nutrition. HMHB accelerates progress by fostering collective action on critical priority interventions such as multiple micronutrient supplementation (MMS) and balanced energy and protein (BEP) dietary supplementation, proven strategies to improve maternal and newborn health outcomes, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Comprising over 500 individuals and organizations, HMHB also hosts Technical Advisory Groups on MMS and BEP, bringing together experts in nutrition, maternal health, and public health to interpret evidence, identify knowledge gaps, and provide guidance to governments, NGOs, and partners.
