We work in two high conflict countries where high levels of newborns are dying- Afghanistan and Syria. We combat the lack of access to health care by providing pediatricians, nurses, midwives, and obstetricians. These healthcare workers will assist expecting mothers during birth and ensure the baby is safe both prior to and after the baby is born.  We also provide community-based birth education where mothers often give birth at home due to lack of access to healthcare or cultural reasons. This birth curriculum is an extensive program that trains community leaders on how to keep babies safe before, during, and after the birth process.
