Just weeks after Nepal began recovery from the devastating August floods, communities in northern Gorkha District and Dhading have been struck by another disaster. On 11 October, a landslide-triggered flash floods along the Budhi Gandaki River, sweeping through communities and destroying homes, bridges, roads, infrastructure, and essential community services.

Jhpiego Nepal is working closely with the government of Nepal to protect maternal and newborn health services in affected communities by:

- Conducting rapid health needs assessments in flood-affected districts.

- Coordinating with the Health Emergency Operations Center (HEOC), the Family Welfare Division, health facilities, and humanitarian partners to identify the immediate need of flood affected areas.

- Identifying gaps in reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health services.

- Supporting continuity of emergency obstetric and newborn care.

- Assisting referral coordination for high-risk pregnancies.

- Supporting preparedness and continuity planning for hospitals and birthing centers serving vulnerable populations.

The communities affected by these floods urgently need support to recover from this disaster and prevent further loss of life. Women, newborns, children, and vulnerable families face heightened risks when access to health services, safe shelter, clean water, and essential supplies is disrupted.

Now is the time to act. Together, we can help save lives, protect mothers and newborns, and support communities as they recover and rebuild. Help our friends in Nepal: https://bit.ly/3Zi30vJ

"If we are able to pick up women in Stage 1 and Stage 2, we have a good chance of ensuring that they survive," - Paa Kobina Forson.

Early detection can save lives. As Jhpiego continues working to strengthen women’s cancer prevention and early detection, initiatives like this are critical to improving treatment outcomes and giving more women the chance to survive and thrive.

The Asokwa Municipal Health Directorate has opened a dedicated breast cancer screening unit at the Nana Ama Serwaa Health Centre at Kaase, offering free screening services to women throughout October.

Every mother deserves to return home safely after giving birth. ❤️

In Burkina Faso’s Goulmou region, the Safer Births in Crises project is strengthening the skills of health care providers to prevent, detect and manage postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), a leading cause of maternal death.

In August, four health professionals completed specialized training in the E-MOTIVE approach and hands-on clinical simulation. They will now train more than 90 additional health care providers across seven health facilities, extending the impact of this training throughout the region.

“I used to estimate blood loss by eye. Today, thanks to the E-MOTIVE approach, I can measure it accurately and act immediately,” shared trainee Jean-Claude Sawadogo.

Through collaboration between Jhpiego Burkina Faso and Jhpiego Guinea, with support from the Learning and Leadership Accelerator Hub (La-La Hub), this initiative is helping equip more providers with the skills and confidence to act when every second counts.

Because safer births start with prepared providers—and every mother deserves the chance to return home to her family.
