“Safe Birth in the Shadow of Complex Humanitarian Crises,” supported by KSRelief and implemented by the UNFPA Somalia Country Office, primarily focuses on reducing maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity among IDPs and host communities in Somalia. There is a specific emphasis on improving maternal and reproductive health services for women and girls impacted by displacement and humanitarian crises in Somalia. 
Access to skilled birth attendants in targeted Emergency Obstetric and Neonatal Care (EmONC) centers is crucial for ensuring safe deliveries. This initiative aims to significantly improves the number of normal deliveries assisted by skilled birth attendants, promoting maternal health and reducing complications during childbirth.
