Story
Christa and Miriam are joining forces as Cambridge Global Health Partnerships (CGHP) Fellows to raise funds and awareness for global health and maternal health.
They are organising an evening of film, conversation and fundraising to raise awareness of maternal health inequalities and support the work of CGHP. CGHP is a charitable organisation committed to improving healthcare globally. CGHP was born out of the belief that health should not be predetermined by where we live. Since 2007, they have been strengthening healthcare in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through reciprocal health partnerships.
As part of their CGHP Fellowship as a midwife (Christa) and an obstetric and gynaecological doctor (Miriam), they have had the opportunity to explore global health, international healthcare partnerships and the role healthcare professionals can play in improving health outcomes beyond the NHS.
This evening is an opportunity to share that learning with a wider audience while raising funds to support CGHP's charitable work.
The evening will begin with a screening of No Woman, No Cry , a powerful documentary exploring maternal health and the experiences of women and communities around the world. A screening made possible with permission from Every Mother Counts.
Following the screening, you will hear from guest speaker Aramide Caunt, Founder and Director of Black Maternal Health Advocate, who will explore maternal health inequalities and advocacy within the UK, particularly the experiences of Black women.
You will also hear briefly from healthcare professionals who have undertaken CGHP Fellowships and from CGHP about opportunities to become involved in global health partnerships.
