The Maternal Health Conference 2010
August 30-September 1, 2010, Delhi, India
Pathfinder is pleased to join more than 400 reproductive health experts from around the world at the Global Maternal Health Conference in Delhi, India. The Global Maternal Health Conference 2010 aims to build on the existing momentum around Millennium Development Goal 5 to coalesce and catalyze the maternal health field. Lessons learned, neglected issues, and innovative thinking will be the underpinnings of the conference, and the anticipated outcome is increased consensus around the evidence, programs and advocacy needed to improve maternal health.
Pathfinder’s work will be featured in 11 presentations throughout the week. In addition, Pathfinder will host a special screening for the launch of our new clinical training film, Prevention and Management of Postpartum Hemorrhage, the evening of August 30th. Read more about the film in our latest news.
