Women Are Watching Campaign Launched During UN General Assembly to Amplify Global Advocacy for Maternal and Reproductive Health
As global leaders convened at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, a powerful new campaign, Women Are Watching, from White Ribbon Alliance elevated the urgent call for maternal and reproductive health justice worldwide. With a staggering statistic that every seven seconds a woman or a newborn dies in pregnancy or childbirth, from mostly preventable causes, the campaign urges world leaders to prioritise this critical issue, where progress has flatlined since the beginning of the SDGs in 2015.

25 YEARS OF CAMPAIGNING FOR CHANGE
Our unique approach is to ask What Women Want and make women’s voices heard by those in power. For over two decades our advocacy has led to governments across Africa and South Asia changing policies, increasing budgets, improving health services – and we have seen childbirth deaths coming down by half. Yet today these gains are being reversed, which is why our revived, reconstituted, locally-led White Ribbon Alliance is again leading the global movement for reproductive health justice.
