Save the children

The first 24 hours of a child's life are the most dangerous. Every year one million children die on their first day of life according to Save the Children. But they say the majority of these deaths could be prevented if a trained health worker was present during child birth. 40m women globally give birth without a midwife present. And 2m of them give birth entirely alone. Is there enough support for women in childbirth in your country?
