Lived realities are too often excluded from health decisions - especially in maternal and newborn care, where every two minutes a pregnant person dies from a preventable cause (World Health Organization). What if those closest to birth and loss were listened to? What if grassroots leaders, midwives, and advocates weren’t sidelined in health decision-making? As part of the Birth Justice Initiative, a partnership between our Askforce member Comotion and Global Fund for Women and funded by the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, join frontline advocates across Africa to reflect on what it means to shift power in maternal health funding and systems to the people living these realities every day. 📅 Sept 24 | ⏰12 PM EST / 7 PM EAT | 💻 Riverside 👉 Register here: https://lnkd.in/e8iSZaxN #BirthJustice #FeministFunding #UNGA (fb)
