Maternal and child health-related indicators comprise two of the eight development goals in the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) (i.e., reducing child mortality and improving maternal health) . This plan aims to reduce child mortality and improve maternal health (1990–2015) by calling for the following changes: a reduction by two-thirds in the mortality of children under 5 years of age, a reduction of three-quarters in maternal mortality, and universal reproductive health by 2015. In September 2000, China officially became a signatory to the MDGs and included women and children as the focus groups in the Healthy China 2030 Planning Outline. In 2010, the World Health Organization (WHO) evaluated the regional and worldwide achievements of the MDGs . A scoring system based on 10 indicators was employed, and the results showed that the worldwide achievements in the MDGs were not satisfactory. Specifically, three of the four maternal and child health-related evaluation indicators failed to show adequate progress. As stated in the final report of the United Nations (the Report of MDGs 2015), the MDGs have not been fully achieved, and inequality still persists. This statement was followed by the target of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (i.e., reducing cases such as international inequalities). In September 2015, the member states of the MDGs re-signed the SDGs, including Reducing Health Inequality at Home and Abroad .
