MESSAGE FROM PROF. DR.ALAINVOKAER
PRESIDENT, MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE, MOTHERS AT RISK FUND,
KING BAUDOUIN FOUNDATION
In my more than 40 years practicing as an obstetrician
together with my wife, a certified midwife, we have
had the fortune of assisting thousands of women
to safely deliver healthy babies. Over the course of
these decades we have also witnessed the serious
complications that can and do arise, and we know all
too well that adequate prenatal prevention and timely
skilled interventions at the moment of birth can make
the difference between life and death.
Today, inexcusably, almost 300,000 women continue to
die every year from pregnancy and childbirth-related
complications - most of them in developing countries.
And motherless children are ten times more likely to
die within two years of their mother’s death. What is
more, for every maternal death, approximately 20 more
women suffer severe illness or injury.
The vast majority of these tragic deaths and disabilities
could be prevented if women had better access to
family planning and to quality care during pregnancy
and childbirth. More generally, if girls and women
have more access to education, their health and that of
their children improves dramatically.
It is these challenges that inspired the creation of
Mothers at Risk (MAR) by a small but very dynamic
group of volunteers, whose evolution I have had the
pleasure of following and contributing to over the
years. MAR has consistently grown to encompass
more projects, reach more beneficiaries, establish new
partnershipsandbecomeincreasinglyprofessionalized
whileretainingaflexibleandresponsiveorganizational
structure that are its trademark.
I am convinced that we urgently need initiatives like
MAR to accelerate progress towards a day when all
women reach motherhood healthy and literate and
have access to adequate standards of care. I commend
MAR and its community of friends and supporters,
and I look forward to accompanying them further in
this journey to help enable women to become healthy,
literate and empowered so they may in turn build
stronger families, communities and societies.

MESSAGE FROM DIANA PEREZ-BUCK
FOUNDER, MOTHERS AT RISK
Never underestimate the power
of a small group of committed people
to change the world. Indeed,
it is the only thing that ever has.
– Margaret Mead
This exciting idea, that ordinary citizens can help solve
intractable problems, was very much at the core of my
motivation to launch Mothers at Risk (MAR) five years
ago. I wondered: with the unspeakable tragedy of
maternal mortality unfolding across the globe, could
a handful of individuals make a difference? Five years
later, surprised and humbled by the many committed
people I have encountered, my answer is a resounding
‘yes’!
I am thinking first and foremost of the outstanding
individuals who lead our local partner organizations
and with whom we have had the privilege of working
these years - Eleni, Claire, Anastasia, Iman, Nadene,
Francisca, Luis… They are tireless and charismatic
problem-solvers, activists and leaders working to
help transform the situation for women in their
communities in the Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa
and Central America. Their unwavering belief in the
possibility of change gives us great optimism.
Mothers at Risk, across all its activities and endeavors,
is entirely volunteer-run thanks to thousands of
hours dedicated by scores of truly outstanding people
from all walks of life, backgrounds and nationalities.
Each and every one of our volunteers brings added
value to our joint effort, and it is a real privilege to be
surrounded by talented, high-caliber professionals
who have chosen to contribute their expertise and
skills to MAR.
Thanks to these collective contributions, we have
been able to help bring prenatal care and safe delivery
closer to rural women in Tanzania, Haiti, Kenya and
Nicaragua. We have invested in the education of
vulnerable girls in Egypt. And we have supported
women who face motherhood alone, in extreme
conditions of social, economic and emotional exclusion
in Morocco and in Belgium.
We have been touched by the stories of mothers,
girls and babies whose lives have been impacted for
the better by these efforts. Like baby Emmanuel in
nomadic Turkana, Kenya, born safe and sound thanks
only to the overnight efforts of the medical team of
the Nariokotome dispensary. Or Magdala, who after
barely surviving the birth of her second son, became a
midwife in her native Haiti to help other women avoid
the same fate. And Fatima, a poor and single mother
in Tangier, who can now better support herself and
her daughter Jamila thanks to the job she secured after
vocational training. Or Yasmeen, a girl from the slums
of Cairo, who is now literate.
We could not have supported any of this without
the institutions and individuals who have supported
us financially, starting with the startup capital
provided by our founding donors, followed by other
generous private donors and by organizations like
Rotary, as well as private sector companies such as
Alcatel-Lucent, the bpost and the Belgian National
Lottery. We are indebted to them all for their vote of
confidence in us.
Looking back at these first five years I am immensely
proud of what we have accomplished but I am equally
aware of how much there is still to do. In Khmer,
the language of Cambodia, childbirth is known as
“crossing the river. May MAR’s work continue to serve
so that more women may ‘cross the river’ safely.

THE ISSUES
Mothers at Risk came into being by a group of people who
were moved by the unacceptable risks women around
the world still face in childbirth. In these next pages, we
illustrate some of the sobering facts that have moved us into
action.
MATERNAL AND NEWBORN MORTALITY
• Over 289,000 women die from pregnancy and childbirth-
related complications each year. That is 800 women a day
• 99% of these deaths happen in developing countries
• For every maternal death, approximately 20 women
suffer severe illness, injury, or disability
• Maternal deaths leave one million orphan children
behind, and these children are 10 times more likely to die
within two years of their mother’s death
• Nearly 3 million newborn babies die every year
unnecessarily
• 90% of these maternal and newborn deaths are
preventable when women have access to three types
of interventions: quality care during pregnancy and
birth; access to emergency obstetric care when problems
arise during pregnancy and delivery; and adequate
reproductive health services.
MOTHERHOOD AND THE GIRL-CHILD
• Worldwide 31 million girls of primary school age are not
enrolled in school
• Many of them become mothers while still girls
• Research shows that the consequences of adolescent
childbearing include higher risk of complications during
pregnancy and maternal mortality. Teenage pregnancies
are also correlated with increased rates of infant
mortality and malnutrition, lower levels of education
for the mother and their children, and increased risk of
poverty
• If girls stay in school beyond grade 7 they are:
o More likely to have healthier children
o More likely to have an average of 2.2 fewer children
o More likely to send their children to school
o More likely to marry 4 years later
o Less likely to die in pregnancy/ childbirth
MOTHERHOOD ALONE AND EXCLUDED
Beyond pregnancy and delivery, raising children in poverty can be an insurmountable challenge for those
women facing the experience alone, impoverished and excluded. Some may be far from their homes, seeking
refuge or asylum from conflict, violence or persecution. Some women may have lost their partners and may
become sole breadwinners. Others may have become pregnant out of wedlock and be shunned by their families
and communities. Some, out of desperation, may revert to dangerous back-street abortions or feel no choice but
to abandon their newborn babies. We support vulnerable women experiencing pregnancy, delivery and the early
years of their children alone so they and their babies may be as safe, healthy and independent as possible.

KENYA
Location: Turkana, Kenya
MAR Thematic Area:
· Maternal health
· Education and livelihoods
· Infrastructure
Total Grant: 126,439 Euros
Local Partner: The Missionary Community Saint
Paul Apostle (MCSPA)
Turkana is a remote, arid, semi-desert region in North-East Kenya. It is very isolated and lacks basic infrastructure
and services. Its 800,000 inhabitants belong to the Turkana tribe and are semi-nomadic shepherds who live in
endemic poverty. In recent years the entire region has been suffering from drought, leading to loss of livelihood
assets and widespread food insecurity. With droughts becoming longer and more unpredictable due to climate
change, Turkana is in a situation of ‘chronic crisis’, with families struggling to recover from one drought to the
next and pastoralists unable to rebuild their herds.
Eighty percent of the population lacks acceptable access to clean water, and water-borne diseases are widespread.
Education and literacy levels are low and there is limited knowledge on health and nutrition issues. Women and
children are particularly vulnerable. Nationally, the maternal mortality rate is among the highest in the world,
with 400 deaths for ever 100,000 live births, and the rate of mortality for children under five is 73 for every 100,000
live births.

13
OUR WORK IN KENYA
Our Local Partner
The Missionary Community of Saint Paul Apostle (MCSPA) has worked in Turkana
for 27 years carrying out community-based development programs with the goal
of improving the lives of the Turkana. It serves 150,000 people in a 10,000 km2
area, providing access to water, sanitation, health care, basic agriculture training, nutritional units and food aid
when necessary. MCSPA works closely with the government and other non-governmental organizations, and in
the area where MCSPA is active, child malnutrition is 15 percentage points lower than elsewhere in the region.
Our Contribution
MAR’s goal is to support MCSPA’s comprehensive efforts to improve the living conditions and coping mechanisms
of the people of Turkana. We do this through the following initiatives:
o A project to increase access to basic health services and mother and child-care for pregnant and lactating
women of Kokuselei by establishing mobile clinics and training village health promoters in seven villages
in Turkana. This project also focuses on improving overall health and nutrition through training on food
preparation and the introduction of greater diversity in the local diet.
o MAR has facilitated a partnership between MCSPA and the ‘Elisabeth et Amelie Fund’ to improve access to
water for domestic and agricultural use in the Nakwasuro area of Turkana, that was also drought affected.
The project involves the drilling of a borehole and the installation of a solar pumping system as well as
promoting the establishment of small-scale, women-led agriculture to complement nomadic pastoralism.
o MAR has also supported the construction of a community room at the dispensary that is now used for
holding workshops with the women and trainings.
o Due to the extreme drought in the region in 2013 and 2014, MAR also assisted with the provision of
emergency food aid to vulnerable families for a three- month period targeting in particular children under
five, pregnant and lactating women and the elderly.
Thank you very much for working together with us in so many aspects, you are really contributing
to a deep change in Turkana. We hope we can continue to work together for many years.
You are our angels in Brussels!

EGYPT
Location: Cairo, Egypt
MAR Thematic Area:
· Education and livelihoods
· Maternal Health
Local Partner: The Association for the Development
and Enhancement of Women (ADEW)
Urban Poverty
As is true in many parts of the world, urbanization and urban poverty in Egypt are rising, as populations of
urban slums grow both in absolute numbers and relative to the rest of the urban population. Cairo has one
of the largest slum populations in the country and the world, known as aashwa’iat, or ‘random’ areas. They
house hundreds of thousands of people in crowded conditions, have inadequate or insufficient basic amenities
like running water, electricity, and sanitation, and are exposed to environmental hazards and to decaying or
weak infrastructure. The millions living in these urban slums, are largely unaccounted for and are therefore
‘invisible’ and, to a great extent, forgotten. Life in these urban slums is particularly harsh for women and girls,
who additionally face societal and cultural prejudices.
Opportunities for girls
Girls in these slums grow up in an environment of drastic inequality compared to boys. They usually leave school
before their brothers and remain mostly confined to their homes where their potential to escape poverty is slim.
They join the ranks of the over 90 million young girls thought to be out-of-school worldwide, of which more than
a quarter become mothers before the age of 18. In Egypt, the government and civil society organizations have
made considerable strides towards the goal of achieving universal primary education, but in many rural areas
and urban slums, some 50 percent of school-age children either do not attend school, or eventually drop out
around the age of 11. Gender disparity remains a challenge.
Deliveries in poor urban settings
Egypt has made remarkable progress in efforts to curb maternal mortality, having reduced the maternal mortality
ratio between 1990 and 2010 by over 71% and considered on track to achieve the maternal health Millennium
Development Goal (MDG 5) by the 2015 deadline. However urban population growth is outstripping the capacity
of many urban health centers to provide quality maternal services, resulting in lower standards of care and
evidence of discrimination of poor urban women. This marginalization is resulting in many poor urban women
choosing to deliver at home with unskilled attendants despite the proximity of health centers.

15
OUR WORK IN EGYPT
Our Local Partner
Established in 1987, the Association for the Development and Enhancement of Women
(ADEW) advocates for women’s rights in Egypt and supports women living in the
poorest urban and peri-urban slums, in particular female–headed households. ADEW’s
initiatives include micro-credit lending, legal services, literacy promotion for women and
girls and health services.
Our Contribution
GirlsDreamsandLiteracy(GDL)isacombinedprogramdeveloped
by ADEW and MAR to empower girls in poor urban communities
to gain life-skills and literacy and to create opportunities for staying
in, and/or returning to school. The program’s objectives are to:
i) Promote literacy and life skills for girls through the ‘Girls’
Dreams and Literacy’ curriculum
ii) Document obstacles and challenges preventing girls from
completing formal education in targeted communities,
iii) Strengthen community-wide learning and access to formal
educational opportunities for girls through the participatory
approach of ‘Facilitated Learning’.
A first pilot project for 40 young women was funded by the Rotary
Club Hamburg-Bergedorf, and following its success a scaled-up
program for 200 girls is being implemented over a period of three
years (2012-2015) funded by the Alcatel-Lucent Foundation, whose
employees have also volunteered their time.
Survey of ‘dayas’ and mothers: To better understand the enduring
preference of poor urban mothers for deliveries with traditional
birth attendants (“dayas’), MAR and ADEW surveyed almost 400
mothers and 26 dayas in two of Cairo’s largest slums. The survey
showed these women face unique challenges to accessing quality
facility-based deliveries and that targeted interventions will be
necessary to improve the quality and patient care at facility-based
deliveries and to promote the uptake of these services by poor
urban women are needed. MAR and ADEW will be working on
developing programs along two mutually reinforcing lines of
action:
a) to promote new, officially-sanctioned roles for the dayas in
community health promotion and in advocacy for institutional
deliveries.
b) to promote an increase in institutional deliveries in the slums
by ensuring better access to skilled care for deliveries, including
through enhanced quality care at hospital deliveries.
Again, thank you for your interest, your passion, and your
belief in our work; this kind of partnership is what keeps us
going & managing our way through the challenges we face.
You’re not just partners in this program, but an inspiring
developmental institution that we’re so fortunate to be
working with on equal grounds

HAITI
Location: Hinche, Haiti
MAR Thematic Area: Maternal health
Total grant: 19,534 Euros
Local Partner: Midwives for Haiti
Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere and has the highest maternal mortality rate in the
region, at 300 deaths for every 100,000 live births. Due to a lack of resources, and workforce attrition, Haiti has
a severe shortage of skilled healthcare providers. Only 26 percent of births are attended by skilled healthcare
professionals. To make matter worse, the devastating 2010 earthquake damaged many healthcare facilities.
Most births take place at home assisted by non-qualified persons unable to help in the event of complications.
Haiti also has the highest rates of infant and under-five mortality (89 for every 1,000 live births) in the Western
Hemisphere. A quarter of all newborns have low birth weight and hundreds of thousands of children suffer from
chronic malnutrition. Better access to skilled care during pregnancy and delivery is desperately needed in order
to ensure healthy pregnancies and healthy babies.

17
OUR WORK IN HAITI
Our Local Partner
Midwives for Haiti is a small US-based organization founded in
2005. Its core mission is to enable access to maternal and infant care
in remote areas in Haiti. The organization works with the Ministry
of Health to provide obstetrics training to Haitian auxiliary nurses
so they can attend births and provide prenatal care to rural women
that otherwise have limited access to medical care during pregnancy.
Our Contribution
One way to expand access to prenatal care in hard-to-reach or
underserved areas is through mobile health clinics. Mothers at Risk
sponsors midwives who travel with Midwives for Haiti’s prenatal
mobile clinic in the remote Central Plateau Region in Haiti. The
mobile clinic reaches 16 villages monthly and provides prenatal care
to hundreds of women. Prenatal care ensures that any problems are
detected and addressed in time, and helps the mother take care of
her health and that of her unborn baby.
We’re so glad that you’re supporting Magdala and Marie
Denise! You are making an impact on more than just these
two midwives. You are helping their families and the
hundreds of women in Haiti’s central plateau who benefit
from their experience and compassion. Thanks again for
your amazing support!
– Emily Davis Midwives for Haiti 2014

NICARAGUA
Location: Jinotega and Ocotal, Nicaragua
Local Partners: Casas Maternas Mery Barreda and
Cihuatlampa
Nicaragua is, after Haiti, the poorest country in the region and has one of the highest rates of maternal mortality
in Latin America, at over 90 per 100,000 live births. Although the number of women dying in childbirth has
decreased over the past 25 years, maternal mortality remains especially high among women in rural areas due
to lower prenatal care coverage and lower rates of deliveries attended by skilled personnel. While nationally 74
percent of births are attended by skilled health professionals, this figure drops to just over 50 % in rural areas.
Nicaragua also has one of the highest adolescent fertility rates in the world with over a quarter of girls aged 15-
19 already having had a baby. Research shows that the consequences of adolescent childbearing include higher
risk of complications during pregnancy and maternal mortality. Teenage pregnancies are also correlated with
increased rates of infant mortality and malnutrition, lower levels of education for the mother and their children,
and increased risk of poverty.

19
OUR WORK IN NICARAGUA
Our Partners
Casas Maternas (maternal waiting homes) form an integral part of the national
strategy to curb pre-natal, maternal and neonatal mortality by sheltering
expectant mothers from isolated rural communities with high obstetric risk
during the weeks before delivery. At the Casas Maternas they are monitored
by health professionals, and deliver in nearby hospitals or medical centers
with skilled care rather than at home. MAR has supported the Casa Materna
Cihuatlampa in the region of Jinotega, and the Casa Materna Mary Barreda in
Ocotal, Nueva Segovia, which each shelter an average of 300 mothers yearly, a
quarter of which are adolescents.
Our Contribution
MAR has supported a year-long community outreach program to promote
maternal, sexual and reproductive health awareness in Jinotega and surrounding
villages. This program aimed to ensure that adolescents who are already
pregnant receive proper prenatal care and are attended in delivery by skilled
personnel; and to help reduce the number of unwanted adolescent pregnancies
through information and awareness-raising.
Under the project, fifty health community promoters and youth leaders were
trained in maternal, sexual and reproductive health issues and in community
outreach techniques, including peer-to-peer education. Once trained, they went
into the communities to raise awareness through workshops, focus groups,
visits to schools and presentations in communities and in the Casa Materna.
MAR also designed and funded an organizational and needs assessment of the
Casa Materna Ocotal to identify urgent and long-term needs of the maternal
home. This resulted in a plan to strengthen the Casa Materna across different
areas including:
o Infrastructure repairs and basic equipment
o Running costs (including food, staff, utilities, etc)
o Promoting community and institutional partnerships to support the Casa
o Improving administrative and financial management processes
o Strengthening the program of educational activities for sheltered mothers
o Supporting training for the Casa’s staff
o Identifying funding sources
According to the local school professor Mrs. Afrania, with
the implementation of the Mothers at Risk program, teenage
pregnancies have been decreasing at the high school at a noticeable
rate compared to previous years.

MOROCCO
Location: Tangier, Morocco
MAR Thematic Area: Education and livelihoods
Local Partner: 100% Oumahat
Pregnancy out of wedlock carries a heavy social stigma in Morocco. Despite an important reform to Morocco’s
family code, the Moudawana, in 2004 the unwed mother and her baby have few rights under current law. It is
considered a great dishonor to the family, and the pregnant woman is often shunned or pressured to abandon her
baby. Most of these abandoned babies are institutionalized and face life-long discrimination.

21
OUR WORK IN MOROCCO
Our Local Partner
100% Oumahat (‘100% Mothers’) shelters single pregnant women during pregnancy, the
birth of their babies and until the mothers secure employment. The shelter offers emergency
accommodation and a comprehensive support program: psychological, social, health-related,
legal and logistical. The goals are to encourage a safe and healthy pregnancy, a positive
mother-child relationship and to promote the mothers’ self-sufficiency. 100% Oumahat also
raises awareness to improve the social integration of the mothers, and advocates for legal
recognition of the status of single mothers and their children. It is the only shelter of its kind
in the north of the country.
Our Contribution
Our support for 100% Oumahat has covered the following initiatives:
o VOCATIONAL TRAINING SCHOLARSHIPS. MAR has sponsored vocational training scholarships for
mothers, most of whom are illiterate and have had limited education or training. The goal of the trainings
is to help mothers secure a job placement after they leave the shelter so they can become self- sufficient and
can support themselves and their children. The trainings also help mothers build self confidence, familiarity
with work-related attitudes and behaviors, and improved communications skills.
o JOB PLACEMENT STAFF. MAR funds the salary of a job-placement officer as a contribution to a
comprehensive 3-year capacity-building program for the shelter to scale up substantially is vocational
training and job-placement capabilities.
o SHELTER UPGRADING. MAR has financed a much-needed refurbishment of the shelter’s sleeping quarters,
the children’s ‘crèche’, the kitchen, the living room and the laundry room.
o SHELTERS EXCHANGE PROGRAM. MAR is coordinating an exchange program between 100% Oumahat
and the Belgian shelter for mothers Chevrefeuille for the two shelters to exchange best practices, knowledge
and information.
It is also very important to me to communicate as we do with each other, to share our challenges and
progress. Our close relationship comforts us, despite the geographical distance.
Thank you so much for the trust you continue to have!!! It is great support !!

TANZANIA
Tanzania continues to have one of the highest maternal mortality rates in Africa and the world at 454 deaths for
every 100,000 live births. And Tanzania is one of the ten countries in the world where two-thirds of all babies’
deaths globally occur. The scarcity of trained health professionals and the difficulties for women in reaching
hospital for pre-natal check-ups and delivery, due to dispersed health centers and hospitals in rural areas, are
key challenges. In addition, there is a critical lack of health service professionals who are skilled in providing
comprehensive emergency obstetric and newborn care, and few health facilities equipped for this standard of
care. Disease (including but not limited to malaria and HIV/AIDS), early pregnancies and a paucity of family
planning services all contribute as well towards the present situation, particularly in rural areas. The Mara region
is among the three worse performing regions in the country for skilled birth attendance during delivery, with
only one in three births taking place in a health facility (compared to the national average, which is 50%).

OUR WORK IN TANZANIA
Our Local Partner
Established in May 1975, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Musoma undertakes pastoral and
development activities in the Mara Region. The Diocese is particularly concerned with health
care and it focuses on reducing infant and maternal mortality and morbidity in the area.
Annually, over 17,000 patients benefit from prenatal care and 732 deliver in the Diocese’s twelve
health facilities. Eight of the health facilities owned by the Diocese are equipped to provide
comprehensive emergency obstetric and new born care.
Our Contribution
MAR sponsors training workshops on basic emergency obstetric care (EOC) and antenatal care (ANC) for scores
of service providers (nurse midwives, nursing officers, public health nurses, clinical officers) working within
the health care facilities managed by the Diocese of Musoma. This training is based on the national curriculum
and is lead by expert facilitators from the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare. Maintaining these health care
workers’ skills and knowledge up-to-date is essential to saving the lives of the mothers and babies they attend
to. MAR also sponsors ongoing oversight and supervision of this staff to ensure consistent quality and standards
and to identify gaps in performance. MAR and the Diocese’s efforts are fully aligned with the priorities of the
recently-adopted Mara Region Strategic Plan for the Accelerated Reduction of Maternal and Newborn Deaths
2013-2016.
We present our sincere thanks for the good support we receive from Mothers at Risk. This workshop
enlightens our mind and capabilities to provide quality care to reduce maternal and child mortality
rates. May almighty God bless you all, guide you all and protect you all.
– Anastasia, Diocesan Health Secretary, Musoma, Tanzania

BELGIUM
Across European cities, urban poverty and inequality persist. Poor urban women, and particularly new
immigrants, deal with a complex range of challenges including unemployment and low income, low levels of
education and skills, dysfunctional family situations, domestic violence and a lack of social and family support
networks. Motherhood in this context is particularly difficult and has the potential to increase their vulnerability.

OUR WORK IN BELGIUM
Our Partner
“Chevrefeuille” is a shelter for vulnerable mothers with over 40 years of experience. Since it
opened its doors, it has sheltered over 2000 pregnant women and new mothers of both Belgian
and immigrant origin. It enjoys an outstanding reputation for its multi-dimensional support
of mothers covering their social, administrative, educational, emotional and practical needs.
Chevrefeuille’s goal is to help women become self sufficient, develop strong bonds with their
baby and access housing and employment in order to be able to sustain themselves and their
children independently.
Our Contribution
In partnership with the Belgian literacy federation ‘Lire et Ecrire’, MAR and
Chevrefeuille have developed a literacy program for illiterate immigrant mothers,
which was selected by the Literacy Fund of the Belgian Post (bPost) for a start-up
grant. In this program Chevrefeuille provides scholarships to immigrant mothers
and supports them over several years as they progress through various stages of
literacy, become more self-sufficient and contribute to their children’s own literacy
and schooling.
MAR has also developed and exchange program between Chevrefeuille and the
shelter for mothers ‘100% Oumahat’ in Tangier, Morocco to promote and facilitate the
exchange of best practices, knowledge and information between these two shelters.
This year was the first time I have taken literacy lessons. I feel like I have
made a lot of progress and I have much more confidence now. I relied on
others before, but now I feel like I can do a lot more on my own. When I
look for a job I can express myself and ask questions. I understand the
signs on the street, I can now get around on my own. I feel very motived
and ready to continue learning.
– JN, immigrant mother, participant in literacy program
After 3 intense and fascinating days, thanks to all of you, we return to Tangier
with the spirit ‘oxygenated’ and a full heart…completely energized! We have
had some marvelous exchanges and we leave feeling like we have accomplished
so much more than our original objectives. You cannot imagine just much we
are now full of hope and certainty about our choices and our daily struggles”.
– Claire Trichot, President 100% Oumahat

PERU
Despite economic growth in Peru over the last years, more than half of the rural population continues to live in
poverty. The maternal mortality rate at 90 deaths per 100,000 live births, although a considerable improvement
from 2000 levels, is still unacceptably high. Most women who die in childbirth are poor, indigenous rural women.
Much remains to be done to ensure access to adequate pre-natal, natal and post-natal care for all Peruvian women,
in particular those in hard-to-reach areas.
Location: Yantalo, Peru

Local Partner: The Yantalo Foundation

27
OUR WORK IN PERU
Our Local Partner
The Yantalo Foundation is a local organization working in the village of Yantalo
and surrounding rural areas, in the province of San Martin, in the upper Amazon
jungle. The mission of the Yantalo Foundation is to improve health and education
standards in the area. The Foundation is building a 16-bed International Clinic to
serve all the people of the San Martin region, regardless of their ability to pay, while
also serving as a training center for Peruvian medical students and physicians.
Our Contribution
Mothers at Risk partnered with the Yantalo Foundation, the Tarapoto Nursing School and the Yantalo local
administration to develop and implement a maternal health assessment in Yantalo. 465 mothers and pregnant
women, as well as traditional birth attendants and the local health staff were interviewed to better assess the
uptake of maternal health services in the area. The survey showed evidence of several challenges, including
inconsistent, incomplete prenatal care; a low rate of postnatal check-ups; low awareness of sexual and reproductive
health issues; high incidence of domestic violence; and high incidence of teenage pregnancies.
As a result of this assessment, the Yantalo Foundation was able to develop targeted strategies to increase prenatal
coverage, encourage postnatal check-ups and enhance overall reproductive health in the area.
