Obstetric
fistula, a devastating childbirth
injury caused by unrelieved obstructed
labor, affects women and girls
living in poverty in the developing
world.
|
As
a result of their injuries, women with fistula leak urine, and sometimes feces, causing others to shun them. Most are relegated to the edges of society, unable to board a bus or share a meal with others.
|
| For those who can’t access
treatment, their suffering and
isolation is life-long. |
But
fistula is both preventable and
treatable. On average, fistula
repair surgery costs a mere $300.
One By One makes it easy to change
a woman’s life and, in turn,
the life of her community.
|
One
By One contributes to the elimination
of obstetric fistula worldwide
by engaging the public and supporting
those who work to treat and prevent
fistula in the developing world.
