DESCRIPTION:The Extent and Nature of Obstetric Violence in South Africa.For years women have shared their stories of disrespect, neglect and mistreatment in maternity wards in South Africa. Until now we've not been able to quantify just how many women have been affected by obstetric violence and how it has impacted their journey into motherhood.
<br />If we want to improve maternal and child health outcomes, we need to care about how women experience the healthcare system. In 2025 Embrace commissioned the first prevalence survey of women&rsquo;s birth experiences in Gauteng and Kwa-Zulu Natal.
<br />We invite you to join us as we officially share the findings and engage in critical conversation on how, together, we move from policy to implementation.
