Why is this important?
According to the World Health Organization, maternal health refers to the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth and the postnatal period. Each stage should be a positive experience, ensuring women and their babies reach their full potential for health and well-being. A woman’s maternity experience can have a positive or negative effect upon her emotional well-being and health, in the immediate and the long-term, which can also impact the infant and the wider family system.
Every pregnancy and birth is unique. Addressing inequalities that affect health outcomes, especially sexual and reproductive health, rights, and gender are fundamental to ensuring all women have access to respectful and high-quality maternity care.
