Each year as many as 45,000 Indian women die needlessly during pregnancy and childbirth, official estimates place India’s Maternal Maternity Ratio (MMR) at 167 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births. On the eve of Safe Motherhood Day (10 April, 2015), White Ribbon Alliance- a prominent alliance of NGOs working on women and children';s health around the world-  is organising a media interaction to send out the message that every woman has a right to live and survive pregnancy and childbirth, and this can be achieved through citizen engagement.  

This year';s theme ‘Nothing About Us Without Us’ - Citizens participation and engagement for improving women’s and children’s health  aims at reinforcing the demands for clear and standardized mechanisms and follow through for citizens’ engagement vis-à-vis policies, schemes and programs on women’s and children’s health.


We look forward to your participation.

Save Dissent to Save Democracy   THE rising instances of physical violence and threats against political opponents and the inability to accept dissent must raise huge concerns amongst all of us who see democracy as perhaps the really stellar achievement since Independence. AAP’s attack on BJP headquarters and acts of arson committed under the very noses of their elite leadership; the attacks on Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia in Gujarat in the last two days; the recent manhandling of the caretaker of journalist Siddharth Varadarajan’s house by some garden variety thugs; and the violence and threats meted out regularly to their political opponents by political parties is surely deplorable and condemnable. This is a fatally flawed trend which will destroy the very foundations of our democratic institutions if not pushed back with all the strength and condemnation that the civil society can mobilise. Replaying the past To begin with, it must be clarified that we should ...
