“Reducing unwanted pregnancies can be life-saving, along with ensuring timely access to high-quality antenatal and intrapartum services.” We are targeting both transitionary and stationary woman refugee populations. Specifically in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Greece, Germany, France, UK, Sweden, Turkey, Hungary. Trust is primarily built within communities from the same country. These women are at incredibly high risk of physical and mental complications relating to pregnancy and childbirth due to their refugee status.

One of the biggest issues facing the health of refugees is the number of pregnant women who have unplanned pregnancies and who do not have access to regular antenatal care, and may deliver in unassisted facilities whilst they are in transit. 34% Syrian households in Lebanon with a pregnant or lactating Syrian refugee women. An acute challenge is the lack of access to contraception or maternal healthcare in the camps and a lack of knowledge about reproductive health. As a result, birth rates in the camps are high, and there are high rates of infant mortality and deformity. In addition, our partners report that women who have experienced trauma or who are living in poor conditions are more likely to experience complications during delivery.
