At the Global Foundation for the Care of Newborn Infants (GFCNI), we work to improve newborn health by advocating for high-quality, accessible, and equitable care, long-term follow-up, and continuing care for both mother and infant in each region of the world. Our particular focus is on infants born too soon, too small, or too sick – those who need special medical care and hospitalization after birth. We represent the patient and parent voice in the global arena, transcending country borders and continents.

GFCNI is the first global organization and network to unite patients, families, healthcare professionals, medical staff, and scientists from different disciplines, fields, and countries – all with the joint goal of advancing the health and quality of care for newborns and their families across the globe. We envision a future in which every baby born receives the right care, at the right time, in the right place!
