Maternal and infant health

Layla Aerts

Maternal and infant health remains a key concern, which is why we are continuing our two projects ‘Welcome to Life’ and ‘Congenital Differences’. ‘Congenital Differences’ is focused on the prevention of congenital disabilities and detecting and treating them at an early stage. In 2010, Handicap International and its partners continued to train doctors, nurses, midwives and physiotherapists in disability prevention and detection and in how to treat children with disabilities.
