Research aim
Preventable maternal, newborn and child mortality and morbidity remain unacceptably high in many parts of the world. Inequities in access to quality, respectful and affordable care persist across and within countries, particularly for women, newborns, children and marginalized populations. Global Maternal and Child Health at Utrecht Life Sciences brings together researchers, educators, clinicians and societal partners to generate evidence and innovations that improve pregnancy, birth and early-life outcomes. We work across the continuum from discovery and clinical research to implementation science, health systems strengthening and policy translation, with a strong emphasis on equitable partnerships and capacity strengthening.

This research group aims to contribute to health equity from an ethical and epidemiological perspective. We identify and explain health inequalities and ethically evaluate whether identified health inequalities also lead to health inequity.
