No woman should die in childbirth

Childbirth is a normal physiological process. Yet 1,600 women die in childbirth each day, 90 per cent of them in the developing world. That’s about four planeloads crashing. Imagine the public reaction if that actually happened. Because 99 per cent of these are poor women in poor countries their deaths go largely unnoticed. Professor of global health Zubia Mumtaz is helping reduce maternal mortality among poor, socially marginalized women living in fragile, often conflict-affected countries. She brings the voices of these women and translates her research for policy makers and decision makers who, in turn, who have used her work to create national and global maternal health policies around the world.
