International Day to End Obstetric Fistula

International Day to End Obstetric Fistula, observed by the UN, aims to raise awareness about obstetric fistula, a devastating childbirth injury affecting women worldwide. This day advocates for women’s rights, particularly in sexual and reproductive health, by highlighting the urgency of addressing obstetric fistula as a preventable and treatable condition. Through advocacy campaigns, educational initiatives, and community outreach, efforts are made to end the stigma surrounding obstetric fistula and ensure access to quality healthcare for all women. This day serves as a crucial platform to empower women, promote gender equality, and advance maternal health globally.
