Hundreds of thousands of women from poor countries die each year during pregnancy or during childbirth. The UK government proposes to work out a set of measures to combat this problem, according to the Internet edition for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. Net Representatives of the International Development Committee argue that over the past 120 years there has been little progress in reducing the mortality rate among pregnant women in underdeveloped countries. This is due to the passivity and indifference of regulators.

According to statistics, one in seven women in Nigeria is killed during childbirth. For comparison in the UK, this indicator is one death on 8200 births. The Millennium Development Goals, put forward by the United Nations, set the goal of reducing the number of deaths among pregnant women by 75% by 2015. However, according to experts, since the setting of this task, little has been done, and the goal will not be achieved by the specified date.

The main problem in this area is the wrong approach on the part of the government, which should be aimed at improving women in underdeveloped countries, both nationally and internationally. This is stated by supporters of the new program, which was launched in the UK. Also, experts say that in South Africa, only two out of five women receive appropriate medical assistance during pregnancy.
