Al Jazeera has launched “Birthrights,” a series of videos focusing on maternal health and the factors that impact it. The series “takes us on a journey around the world – to Ethiopia, Hungary, Vietnam, the US, Guatemala and elsewhere. We hear a wide range of stories from women in vastly different circumstances, exploring their roles as mothers, the challenges they face around birth and labour as well as some of the ways they are trying to improve maternal health in their communities.”
The videos will be featured on the IH blog as they are released.
