Article Neonatal Care and Transport Among the Urban Poor: Challenges...

These are just general comments and might be useful. 

1. Importance of Maternal Health and how its link with child health?

Ans: WHO, UN and INGO's has numerous documents on this. Very easy to find. It has latest updates and critical reviews.

2. Maternal Health in developed and developing countries.

Ans: World bank data can be used for comparative analysis among developed and developing countries (P.S. this terminology is being replaced with low-income, middle income economic countries). 

http://data.worldbank.org/topic/health

3. Spatial Distribution of Maternal Health in slums, international slums and Pakistan slums.

Ans: In my opinion, it would be difficult to map distribution in slums (esp in case of Pakistan) where you don't have boundaries and cannot have a visual representation. Secondary Data would be (if available) for whole of slums. When collecting primary data, even with GPS locations you can't generalize for whole neighborhood because of unplanned settlements and variable densities. 

4. what research gap do we see in Pakistan for the above points.

Ans: Download MICS survey data to know about current women health and child care. Also see old reports for analyzing improvement (or deterioration) in health sector in Punjab Province. Identify sector on which needs improvement based on this data. Assess health policy success and failures, and reasons and potential for further improvement.
