State of World's Midwifery Report - Supplements
SCI Laos Health and Nutrition work is highlighted in a large global report: “The State of the World’s Midwifery (SoWMy) report.” The report provides an updated evidence base and detailed analysis of the present progress and future challenges to deliver effective coverage and quality of midwives and midwifery services. The launch of the report take place in May 2021. At the end of 2020, SCI Laos was asked to submit some highlights of our work which were then selected for the report. Specifically, this showcases the work of mentoring under the Primary Health Care program and the Social Behavior Change (SBC) work implemented under PHC/SCALING and how both approaches provide support to mothers, including vulnerable adolescents. We are really pleased that the Health and Nutrition work in SCI Laos has been given global recognition.
