Women on the Front Lines of Health Care: State of the World’s Mothers 2010
There is a critical shortage of female health workers in the developing world. Every year, 50 million women give birth with no professional help. Yet effective solutions to this challenge are affordable - even in the world's poorest countries.

In commemoration of Mother’s Day, we've published our eleventh annual State of the World’s Mothers report.
This year, we look at how female health workers in developing countries are helping to save the lives of mothers, newborns and young children.
We highlight women-to-women approaches that are working to bring essential health care to the hard-to-reach places where most deaths occur.
And we show how millions more lives each year could be saved if governments invested in these proven solutions.
