Uganda’s maternal mortality rate stands at 336 deaths per 100,000 live births. Whereas interventions to reduce this figure have been on an appreciating track, the country’s maternal mortality rate is still one of the highest on the continent and in the world.
To date, 28 out of every 100 women between 15 - 24 years die while giving birth.
