About the topic of this seminar
Every year 2.6 million babies die before they are one month old. While sophisticated medical technologies can help reduce mortality, surprisingly simple solutions work too. In this presentation, Dr. Tanja Houweling will present work on women’s groups in Asia and Africa, and how these groups can help reduce mortality in poor communities.
