Dear Deeply Readers,
Welcome to the archives of News Deeply’s Women & Girls Hub. While we paused regular publication of the site on January 22, 2018, and transitioned our coverage to Women’s Advancement Deeply, we are happy to serve as an ongoing public resource on the Arctic. We hope you’ll enjoy the reporting and analysis that was produced by our dedicated community of editors contributors.
We continue to produce events and special projects while we explore where the on-site journalism goes next. If you’d like to reach us with feedback or ideas for collaboration you can do so at [email protected].
From a cup that helps premature babies drink breast milk to an affordable balloon kit that stops postpartum bleeding, Dr. Patricia Coffey and her team at PATH come up with solutions to health issues affecting women and children in the developing world.
An inexpensive and easy-to-administer drug can prevent women from bleeding to death after childbirth, but governments concerned about its alternative use in abortions are stopping the drug from saving mothers’ lives.
Have a story idea? Interested in adding your voice to our growing community?
