Caring for Kiriwina: A Look into the CFK Village Birth Attendant Program

The Caring for Kiriwina (CFK) Village Birth Attendant program provides vital maternal and newborn healthcare services to the remote communities of Kiriwina Island in Papua New Guinea. The program’s coordinator has been tirelessly working to receive birth reports, visit health villages, and distribute donations to support the CFK’s good works.

Images are of recently birthed, baby boys who were born at Losuia Health Centre between the 15th and the 18th of this month, and they received much-needed donations from the CFK program. These donations will help provide essential items like birthing kits, knitted clothing, and other necessary supplies for the new mothers and her babies.

The CFK program aims to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates by providing support to the village birth attendants and necessary supplies to remote communities where access to healthcare is limited. The program trains local women to become birth attendants who can provide essential maternal and newborn care services, including antenatal care, safe delivery, and postnatal care.
