Population Council

Abstract

Episode 3 in a 5-episode series that explores the process of saving mothers and babies with reproductive health vouchers. Between 5–15% of pregnancies face some type of complication. Some of these complications can cause death or severe disability if the mother doesn't have access to proper health care. The poorest quintile of mothers face the double challenge of lack of resources and a dearth of nearby qualified health facilities. Watch this episode to see how vouchers can be a critical safety net for poor mothers in Kenya.
