Assessing  Effect of Weather Conditions on Journey To and Outcome of Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care in Benin City, Nigeria

Every minute counts when a woman goes into labour - but what happens when bad weather causes blockage on the road?

Phase 1

Project Information

 Building on an existing validated tool developed by OnTIME researchers to trace women's journeys to childbirth care, This project aims to bridge a critical gap by capturing the specific ways that weather conditions shape women's care-seeking journeys, cause delays, and create distress

 

By piloting it in Benin City, Nigeria, it will generate the first systematic insights into how climate, mobility, and maternal health intersect, helping to drive smarter, more resilient solutions for urban maternity care.
