Situation
Globally, there are still approximately 830 women dying every day from pregnancy and childbirth related causes, of which 99% of them are in low-resource settings. The WHO have reported women living in rural and remote communities have higher risks due to lack of quality health services, with more than half of these deaths occurring in sub-Sahara Africa and one third in South Asia. These deaths could have been prevented with the right health training provided to frontline health workers.
Solution
In our work at Medical Aid Films, we use the power of film to transform the lives of people in the poorest and most marginalised settings with life-saving health information. Film is a very powerful tool for education and training as it helps to present complex information simple and clearly, keeping audiences engaged. Majority of our content for health care workers is designed to be used in blended learning, to support the training, knowledge, skills and continued professional development.
