BIRTH AND DEATH
During the week of the G8 meetings in
Maternal death is the greatest health inequity of the 21st Century. Every
minute, someone’s mother, sister, wife or friend dies needlessly giving
birth. That adds up to half a million women a year.
It remains a global disgrace that more women in the developing world die
through becoming pregnant than from any other cause.
Yet we know what to do to stop this. Weve tried it. It works. Even in countries
usually considered poor.
The answer is many more trained health workers.
The G8 have promised to take action.
As yet, they havent.
Lets hold them to their promises.
Birth and Death is part of the White Ribbon Alliance Atlas of Birth project, in
collaboration with GHP3 (
