Maternal Mortality and Human Rights

Check out the new website of the International Initiative on Maternal Mortality and Human Rights (IIMMHR).

IIMMHR is a partnership of international, regional, and national civil society organizations committed to a comprehensive human rights approach to maternal mortality, with a core message that half a million needless deaths a year represents a human rights crisis that must be confronted.

Visit the site, where you can learn about their programs, download publications, and see the statement in which more than 80 governments commit to addressing maternal mortality as a global human rights issue.
