On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
In this talk, Dr Desire Habonimana will take us through the maternal and newborn health sphere in Burundi and how the country is committed to address maternal and newborn mortality with unprecedented political and stewardship resolve. He will focus on the government initiative to provide quality care for emergency maternal and newborn complications which started in 2017 and is backed by many partners and local stakeholders to i) examine the readiness and performance of this initiative, ii) its empirical impact on mortality as well as its sustainability likelihood and, iii) use the human resources lens to develop investment proposals that could nudge the country’s effort.
