Maternal mortality is nothing short of an epidemic in particular for the developing parts of the world.

Most deaths can be prevented if women are given timely access to pregnancy advice and support, trained midwives and birth attendants, life-saving treatments, and well-equipped health clinics and hospitals.

SDSM aims to improve maternal and reproductive healthcare in Pakistan through affordable and accessible services in communities.

They build the capacity of frontline health workers, birth attendants, and medical staff at primary healthcare facilities with a specific focus on rural and remote areas; SDSM also equips healthcare staff to provide essential services for patients in low-resource settings.

According to the Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey 2018, Pakistan has the highest fertility rate in the South Asian region with 3.6 children per woman and have the lowest contraceptive prevalence rate in the region at only 34%.

According to UNFPA Pakistan State of the World Population Report 2017, Pakistan loses 14,000 women during childbirth every year, one death every 37 minutes.

According to CDC, 70% of maternal deaths are preventable and treatable with timely and affordable healthcare services.
