What your support achieves – throughout the world
South Sudan
Midwives save lives
Southern Sudan has one of the highest maternal and infant mortality rates in the world. The country urgently needs well-trained midwives to save newborns and their mothers. Mission 21 supports a midwifery school that provides two and a half years of midwifery training for young women. Despite the war, 80 women have already successfully completed their midwifery school and are now working throughout the country. Each of them accompanies up to 250 births per year. Help to continue the education of midwives and save lives. ► More info
