Members don't see this ad.

I am currently b/n my 3rd and 4th year of medical school starting a MPH program at BU concentrating in International health this fall. I have decided to do an OB/GYN residency and am really interested in Women's Global Health. Does anybody have any interest in that or know any information, good sources, websites, etc???

WHO has a LOT of resources on Maternal Health.

Check out http://www.who.int/topics/maternal_health/en/
recommendation: Making Pregnancy Safer Programme

You can find broader information on Women's Health at http://www.who.int/topics/womens_health/en/

If there are particular topics you are interested in you can always search the online WHO library. Likewise, if you are interested in maternal health in a particular region or country you can go to that regions respective WHO site. Just keep in mind Women's health is a cross-cutting issue, so you will find things about it all over the WHO website.

Hope that helps 🙂
