Today, we’re focusing on maternal health in South Sudan,  a pressing national concern that continues to claim the lives of too many women.

Vice President Rebecca Nyandeng recently met with the Association of Gynecologists and Obstetricians of South Sudan to address the country’s high maternal mortality rate and the cultural and structural barriers that continue to endanger women during childbirth.

The Association also announced its upcoming Annual Scientific Conference, which will bring together experts and policymakers to seek long-term solutions for improving maternal and reproductive health services across the country.

Joining us to discuss this is Dr. Zechariah James Malel, President of the Association of Gynecologists and Obstetricians of South Sudan.
