Ending fistula within a generation

                                                                                                    

Obstetric fistula is almost exclusively a condition of the poorest, most vulnerable and most marginalized women and girls. It afflicts those who lack access to the timely, high-quality, and life-saving maternal health care that they so desperately need and deserve, and that is their basic human right. 

The theme of this year’s International Day to End Obstetric Fistula, “End fistula within a generation”, is a call to transform the world.
