HRIC IS RUN BY A BOARD

of passionate expert-volunteers, who donate their time to make a better world.

A world where mothers and babies don’t die of preventable causes. A world where the health of mother
and babies is assessed beyond survival, making of the physical and emotional well-being of the mother-baby
​dyad a priority rather than a desirable but non-substantial outcome.

A WORLDWHERE…

pregnancy, birth and the post-partum period is lived with joy rather than fear. 

A world where pregnancy and birth is lived as an empowering experience, where the pregnant woman is the ultimate decision maker.

PREGNANT PERSONS MUST BE

at the centre of maternity care so that they can have a healthier and safer experience. 

When pregnant women’s sexual and reproductive rights are upheld, also their babies benefit from a
​healthier and safer start. Because during pregnancy, mother and baby’s interests are aligned, not in opposition.  

WE BELIEVE THAT…​

all those involved in the provision of maternity care should fully grasp and uphold women’s fundamental right to autonomy over their own bodies and pregnancies.

This would result in a decrease of maternal mortality rates as well as in a drastic improvement of the health and well-being of mothers and babies.

AT HRIC, WE ARE…

convinced that compassionate and respectful maternity care is key to improve the health and
​well-being of mother and babies worldwide and we work hard to make it happen.

With your donation, you can be part of the change.
Healthier and happier mothers and babies worldwide will be grateful for your contribution.
