When women have the right tools, their voices can drive change.

Maternal Health Champions and women from Ward Development Committee( WDC) came together for a practical and engaging session on feedback tools, building their capacity to gather, document and communicate community experiences and concerns around maternal healthcare.

Turning women’s experiences into evidence for action.

JDPC had a walkthrough session with Maternal Health Champions and women in Ward Development Committees (WDCs) on using a feedback form to document women’s experiences at health facilities.

The session focused on how to capture real experiences around access to maternal health services, quality of care, challenges encountered, and areas that require improvement.

By documenting these experiences at the community level, we can build evidence that supports advocacy, accountability and better maternal healthcare.

This creates a stronger link between women’s voices, community structures, health facilities and decision-makers ensuring that lived experiences can inform action and improvements in maternal health services.
