Perinatal education for 1400 mothers in Albania

Organization information

Mother and Child Hospital Foundation

Location: Tirane, Albania

Summary

Statistics from the latest World Bank Report rate Albania as the country with the second-highest child mortality rate in the Balkans. As many as 75% of pregnant women in Albania have never received education on prenatal or postnatal care, making them and their child highly vulnerable to easily avoidable health risks. The Mother and Child Hospital Foundation is helping bridge this gap, empowering and educating mothers through offering free of charge, prenatal and postnatal classes.
