2nd Hearing in the Central Region on the Proposed Law against Obstetric Violence in Mozambique

The event took place in the city of Beira and was coordinated by Aliança para a Saúde, with the support of PLASOC Sofala, led by Rui Semente. The consultation was conducted by the coordinator of the Aliança para a Saúde network, Violeta Bila, and Judge Vitalina Papadakis.

The event, which falls within the scope of the HUMANIZA MOZ Campaign, was attended by 48 participants from state and non-state organizations, and had the following objectives:

• Present the entry points and elements to be incorporated into the proposed law, based on an analysis of the gaps and opportunities in current legislation on obstetric humanization;

• Socialize, debate and consult key actors on a proposed law that penalizes obstetric violence in the central region of the country;

• Collect and systematize the sensitivity, opinions, and contributions of key actors in relation to the proposal presented.

This activity received financing and technical support from the Potenciar-UKAID program, technical support from the Alliance for Health, in partnership with PLASOC Sofala.
