Abstract

This report will contribute to the global narrative about maternal health and rights by examining the current state in Uganda in regional (Sub-Saharan Africa) and global context. The report will focus on indicators of maternal health and rights in Uganda and the complex social, political, legal, and sociocultural factors that influence maternal health in a developing nation. This report will contribute to understanding of the current issues impacting maternal health, and will culminate with recommendations for appropriate policies and advised programmatic response to improve maternal health in Uganda, with implications for the Sub-Saharan African region and the world.
