About the IAP Archive
The IAP Archive is an independent academic and public health initiative dedicated to preserving and maintaining access to the work and legacy of the Independent Accountability Panel (IAP) for Every Woman Every Child.
Established under the United Nations Secretary-General’s initiative, the IAP played an important role in strengthening global accountability for women’s, children’s, and adolescents’ health. Its work contributed to advancing transparency, monitoring, review, and action within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals.
Following the conclusion of the IAP’s mandate, access to its materials became increasingly limited. The IAP Archive has been developed to address this gap by providing a structured, reliable, and academically grounded platform where publicly available IAP-related materials can be accessed, referenced, and contextualized.
This initiative is hosted in collaboration with the Georgian Medical Journal (GMJ) and supported by the Public Health Institute of Georgia (PHIG). It also aims to foster continued scholarly dialogue on accountability in global health.
