Globally, every two minutes, a woman dies during pregnancy or childbirth. Almost every one of these deaths was from preventable causes such as infectious diseases and complications during pregnancy or childbirth. UNICEF is committed to protecting the lives of mothers and newborns by supporting high-quality, equitable and low-cost care and services before, during and after birth.
