In areas of armed conflict and other situations of violence, midwives play a crucial role in providing medical care for women. We trained 9 medical care providers in "Hamda" locality in the Blue Nile region to improve the health of pregnant women and newborns.

In any armed conflict, the #ICRC takes the side of the victims - and theirs only. This is what the institution was created to do, this is the mandate it has been given, this is what allows its teams to operate across frontlines.

They kill children. They kill soldiers. They kill women. They kill the elderly. They kill animals. They kill men. Anti-personnel #mines kill indiscriminately. They must never be used anywhere, by anyone. #StopMines #MineBanTreaty

Conflict ruins the environment. Climate change devastates it further. How can those caught in the crossfire survive?
