Join UNICEF NextGen for a critical discussion on the issue of maternal mortality from expert panelists, exploring the situation on a global, domestic, and local level. At this event, guests will be educated on the issue of maternal mortality globally and in the United States, with a focus on the racial disparities, while learning about UNICEF's work on a global scale to reduce maternal mortality. The discussion will also include ways that we can advocate on a legislative level and work with government officials to help find solutions in New York, and in the U.S. at-large.
Learn from experts on this important issue and have the opportunity to meet with NextGen members and other UNICEF USA supporters from across the city!
