1200 kits were recently received and distributed in multiple community settings by our field partner, Egoli Africa, Uganda
Egoli Africa is clear about what the distribution of birthing kits can achieve
Birthing kits were given directly to pregnant mothers with those mothers informed by village health teams and health centre staff about the use of the birthing kits and the importance of hygiene during and after birthgiving
Egoli Africa says that the supply of birthing kits
“helps health centres to give proper care to women during birthgiving. Health centres almost always never have birthing kits in stock, yet women are supposed to have them and cannot afford them”
Pictured here arewomen from the community of Busanga village, where the Birthing Kits were distributed with the help of a local health centre.
