The goal of the project is to promote child deliveries in an institutional setting in order to reduce maternal mortality and prevent the mother-to-child transmission of HIV. The project aims to deliver pre- and postnatal services and counselling to women residing in rural areas, and encourage them to deliver in an institutional setting in order to mitigate risks associated with pregnancy and childbirth. The project also aims to educate members of the community on issues surrounding pregnancy and HIV/AIDS, and provide counselling and testing. This is one of two parts of a project valued at $499,242. The first part has been completed.
