This MDG#5 report includes a medical officer in Kenya discussing with the children how fundamental education, and infrastructure are in the fight to reduce maternal mortality. Next is a report from a successful program in a remote district that is serving mothers. Also some reasons why mothers still go to midwives instead of hospitals. Lastly an interview with a midwife who works in the countryside and how she attempts to help reduce maternal mortality. She talks about how she works with, and encourages mothers to use the hospitals.
This news report about the UN Millenium development goals (MDG#5) has been filmed by 80 boys and girls who come from a slum in Nairobi, Kenya and are now supported by the African Medical and Research Foundation.
