NASG Advocacy & Action Network

The NASG saves mothers' lives. The NASG is a key tool in reducing mortality from postpartum hemorrhage, one of the leading causes of maternal death. In collaboration with CHAI & Lwala Community Alliance, UCSF Safe Motherhood has established the NASG Advocacy & Action Network (NAAN). NAAN gathers experts, experienced providers, and groups interested in launching new projects and scaling up the NASG. NAAN meets every other month via Zoom to work towards the following goals:

Advocacy towards greater availability and scale-up of the NASG and complementary interventions
Sharing expertise around effective NASG introduction and existing training resources
Identification of potential funding sources as well as partnerships for applications for funding
