A Framework for the Adoption of Emerging Technologies to Reduce Under-Five Mortality in Zimbabwe.

Under-five mortality remains a global health concern as many countries have failed to achieve the United Nations Millennium Development Goal 4 (MDG 4). Children under five (under-fives) continue to perish to preventable deaths globally. Zimbabwe is amongst the Sub-Saharan African countries that failed to achieve the MDG 4 on under-five mortality. Regardless of evidence from other regions that emerging technologies help eliminate preventable deaths among under-fives, Zimbabwe’s adoption of such technologies in public health facilities remains nascent.
