Safe motherhood means ensuring that all women receive the care they need to be safe and healthy throughout pregnancy and childbirth.
Safe motherhood is fundamentally a matter of human rights; all women are entitled to good health and high-quality health services. Maternal deaths are linked to women’s low status in society, and their lack of decision making ability and economic power. In order for women to be able to enjoy safe pregnancy outcomes, they need to be accorded the same opportunities to health, education, and employment as their male counterparts.
