Women and Children First
We want a world where all women, children and young people can survive and thrive. Too often they face problems that can harm, kill or hold them back, like preventable, treatable diseases or issues in pregnancy. Women and Children First are pioneers at empowering local communities in the world’s poorest countries. We enable women to take the lead in achieving this. We guide them to overcome their problems, setting up women’s health groups, bringing men and women together to find the answers they need. They come up with life-saving ideas like bicycle ambulances, sourcing and distributing mosquito nets, and cleaning water sources. They create long-term, sustainable solutions. Our approach is recommended by the World Health Organisation. We have reduced newborn deaths by 33%, maternal deaths by 49% and saved over 6,000 lives to date – and counting.
