Abstract

The unprecedented global crisis, through the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19), will undoubtedly have an impact on child health for many years to come in low and low-middle income countries (LIC/LMIC) but also high-income countries (HIC). The disease has led to a number of barriers hindering the implementation of child health programmes in HIC, which will further contribute to health inequalities especially for those already most marginalized in society.

Reverse Innovation: Could Learning From LMIC Child Health Programmes Support high-income countries (HIC) to Equitably and Efficiently Address Child Health Needs Post COVID-19?
The disease has led to a number of barriers hindering the implementation of child health programmes in HIC, which will further contribute to health inequalities especially for those already most marginalized in society
The process, whereby HIC adopt interventions developed in LIC/LMIC is most frequently described as Reverse Innovation [4]
