Learn What You Can Do To Improve Maternal Healthcare with this Free Course

Leave a Comment

Imagine a woman in a remote village, perhaps in Africa or South Asia. She’s giving birth at home with a relative. Without access to drugs or transport, she could die. While maternal deaths have nearly halved in the past 25 years worldwide, thanks to the increased use of maternity services, progress has not been universal.

The online course “The Lancet Maternal Health Series: Global Research and Evidence” explores the state of maternal health globally, based on The Lancet Maternal Health Series. You will review the latest evidence from experts, and learn what is needed to ensure good-quality, woman-centred maternal healthcare for all.

This course is designed for people who are studying, researching or working in maternal health or related disciplines such as public health, global health or medicine.
