 TAKE ACTION! End maternal mortality in Burkina Faso!
Every year more than 2000 women die in pregnancy and childbirth in Burkina Faso due to delays in accessing health care because of cost or distance, and because women lack information about their rights and are denied the right to make decisions about their health. Take action here: www.amnesty.ca/dignity

 TAKE ACTION! Write a solidarity message to Sierra Leone!
AI Sierra Leone is collecting solidarity messages for the Princess Christian Maternity  Hospital (PCMH), the only maternity referral hospital in Sierra Leone. Please write messages to the women of Sierra Leone or to the maternity hospital and send your messages to the Amnesty International office at 312 Laurier Ave. E. Ottawa, ON K1N 1H9. We will send them to AI Sierra Leone for the hospital.
