obstetric fistula, a preventable childbirth injury that causes incontinence and lifelong stigma. In The Gambia, the Foundation for Research on Women\u2019s Health, Productivity and the Environment (BAFROW), with support from the International Development Bank (IDB), has been working for over a decade to prevent, treat and end this devastating condition.<\/p><p>\u201cEnding obstetric fistula by 2030 will be challenging, as many women remain silent due to stigma. This invisibility denies them access to life-changing surgical and rehabilitation services,\u201d said Ms. Fatou Waggeh, Executive Director of BAFROW.<\/p><p>This year, BAFROW is scaling up its Well Woman and Family Health Clinic in Mandinaba Village to expand early detection and intervention for pregnancy complications. In addition, a new fistula database\u2014supported by IDB\u2014will help close critical data gaps, guiding national stakeholders toward coordinated and sustainable solutions.<\/p><p>On this International Day, BAFROW is intensifying awareness campaigns targeting communities, policymakers and decision-makers. Key priorities include:<\/p><ul><li>Expanding emergency obstetric and neonatal care to more communities<\/li><li>Addressing harmful practices such as female genital mutilation (FGM) and teenage pregnancy<\/li><li>Institutionalizing reproductive health education in both formal and non-formal settings<\/li><\/ul><p>\u201cTogether with government and partners, we remain committed to building an obstetric fistula-free future for generations of Gambian women and girls,\u201d Ms. Waggeh concluded.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section

of BAFROW\u2019s Obstetric Fistula Support Group and Community-Based Counsellors (CBCs) visited BAFROW Medical Centre to hold interactive sessions with outpatient clients. These talks highlighted the risk factors associated with obstetric fistula\u2014such as FGM, child marriage and teenage pregnancy\u2014and encouraged pregnant women to book antenatal care early to reduce the risk of labour complications that can delay delivery and lead to fistula. Participants were also informed about the services available at BAFROW\u2019s Fistula Treatment and Rehabilitation Centre.<\/p><p>The sessions were conducted in Wollof and Mandinka, supported by the distribution of IEC materials, including t-shirts and information fliers. In addition, BAFROW\u2019s short video \u201cObstetric Fistula Awareness\u201d was screened on waiting area monitors throughout 22\u201324 May, reinforcing the key messages.<\/p><p>BAFROW\u2019s Support Group continues to collaborate with CBCs and facilitators to sensitize communities about antenatal services at BAFROW Family Clinic in Mandinaba Village. Their work includes group discussions and one-to-one counselling with antenatal patients, addressing obstetric fistula alongside broader reproductive health issues.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section
