Motion

On Equity in Maternal Health Data

The Young World Parliament,

Noting that national averages can conceal large differences in maternal outcomes between communities,

Convinced that what is not measured is rarely improved,

  1. Urges health authorities to publish maternal health outcomes disaggregated by region, income and ethnicity, with appropriate privacy protections;
  2. Recommends that community health workers be trained and resourced to record outcomes in underserved areas;
  3. Transmits this Resolution to the United World Leaders Women’s Healthcare Council.

Counsel

Senior Counsellors, the former Presidents and Prime Ministers of United World Leaders, may publish written Counsel on a frozen text. They advise; they never vote.

Reserved. In this simulation no Counsel is shown: statements are never attributed to real leaders on fictional Motions. When the Parliament opens, signed Counsel will appear here in full.
