SUPPORT MIDWIFERY EDUCATION IN AFRICA TOGETHER
Spartoo has supported AMREF for 9 years!
Spartoo has been a proud supporter of AMREF for the past 9 years!
As a leading African public health NGO, Amref fights for equitable access to health care in Africa, particularly for women and children. For over 15 years, Amref has placed the empowerment and development of healthcare workers at the heart of its projects, while also mobilising digital health innovations. This includes distance training for medical staff through e-learning and mobile learning, and telemedicine – remote diagnosis, patient registration and monitoring.
Sub-Saharan Africa still has the highest maternal and child mortality rates in the world: One in 13 children do not survive to their fifth birthday. More than 80% of maternal deaths worldwide occur in sub-Saharan Africa (source UN, 2017.) Many deaths could be avoided with trained midwives.

More details
With almost 60% of its population under the age of 25, Africa has the youngest population in the world.
Today, more than ever, young people are actively breaking down barriers to development and social justice through innovation and responsibility. Promoting access to health for young people and children has been part of AMREF's DNA since its creation in 1957.
With maternal, neonatal and child health and sexual and reproductive health as priorities for action, AMREF is committed to a global approach for adolescents and children, always with a local and adapted footprint. Through three main projects, the NGO works daily to ensure that African youth develop in a healthy way.

- 1. Educating youth on health issues with the school programme at LIMPOPO (South Africa)
Launched in 2018 in Limpopo province, School Health bridges the gap between health services, children and their families by informing them about health, hygiene and nutrition practices
2. Fighting FGC with the Devenir programme in Sédhiou (Senegal)> The Devenir project, signed in September 2020 with the French Development Agency, is being deployed in the Sédhiou region of Senegal to help reduce female genital mutilation.
3. Uniting for Children with the Capital Santé programme (Senegal and Guinea) The Health Capital project aims to reduce morbidity and mortality in children by providing them with optimal health capital through the engagement and interrelation of 3 environments: school, family and health services.
