Job Purpose

EVERY ONE Campaign
Every One (or Newborn and Child Survival) is our campaign to stop children dying. By 2015, we’ll make sure that every year nearly 6 million fewer children die before their fifth birthday. We’ll save children’s lives ourselves and work with others to save lives.
Our vision is that within five years no child under the age of five dies from preventable causes and public attitudes will not tolerate a return to high levels of child deaths.

Our goal is that Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG4) is achieved. This means that child mortality is reduced by two thirds in 2015 - saving the lives of almost six million children each year.

By 2015
• we will reach 60 million children each year with proven interventions
• we will have played a critical role in ensuring the world reaches MDG4
• we will have mobilized 60 million people

• the value of every child: EVERY ONE matters

• our determination to success: EVERY ONE of our goals is achievable
