Obstetric fistula is a devastating birth injury affecting an estimated 500,000 women, mostly in middle- and low-income countries. See how we are working to #EndFistula in Uganda: https://t.co/3KY8eDYeVC @Amref_Uganda https://t.co/NtRbcKipid

Happy International Day to End Obstetric Fistula! Did you know? Obstetric fistula affects 50,000 women yearly, but only 16,000 receive treatment. Innovations like @OpFistula supported by GCC, can provide safe surgical treatment to 40,000 women by 2030 https://t.co/1T73aLbUHj
