Our work has research-proven impact
Safe Delivery+ Programme
Our SafeDelivery+ programme is a digital, modular learning and training universe. It includes the free, evidence-based Safe Delivery App. The Safe Delivery App is a professional job aid and learning tool for midwives and healthcare professionals. We combine the app with online learning in addition to remote and on the ground trainings.
Through our SafeDelivery+ programme, we can reach even the most remote healthcare professionals and continuously enhance their knowledge and skills and ultimately the quality of care that they provide for the communities they serve.
