Abstract
The challenges for childcare in the new millennium are outlined. The highly successful polio immunization strategy needs to be extended to other activities. The training programs developed for neonatal resuscitation, intensive care and care in oncology should be extended to other specialities. The journal will provide more fellowships and aid in the development of sub specialities in pediatrics. It will be published monthly and will also go online from January 2000.
