Last Friday , South Sudan, through the Association of Gynaecologists and Obstetricians of South Sudan (AGOSS), received a shipment of maternal and newborn training simulators from Laerdal Global.

The consignment includes:
• 72 MamaNatalie Complete birthing simulators
• 10 MamaBirthie CS birthing simulators
• 72 Helping Mothers Survive/Bleeding After Birth Complete (HMS/BABC) Facilitator Flipchart Sets
• 72 HMS/BABC Provider Guides

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide and continues to be a major contributor to maternal deaths in South Sudan.

These simulators will significantly strengthen the practical skills of healthcare workers through simulation-based training, enhancing their capacity to prevent, recognize, and manage postpartum hemorrhage and other obstetric emergencies. This is an important step toward improving the quality of maternal care and ensuring safer childbirth across the country.

We sincerely appreciate Laerdal Global and all partners committed to improving maternal and newborn health in South Sudan.
