This is an interesting idea but I don't see how it connects directly with maternal health. Can you please explain in more detail how it will benefit maternal health and not just women's general well-being?

Thanks!
Claire

One of the challenges for the health of women (especially rural) is a negative impact on its climate change impacts. In our case, the main problem - a growing shortage of clean drinking water. Large role to play and the standard of living, especially for rural women. After all, poverty and disease go together. And we offer training to conserve resources. On the other hand, training on reducing human impacts on nature and climate as a result will help reduce the boomerang effect.
In general, this is one example. The basic idea is the proposed mechanism to enhance the skills and knowledge. You can teach sound nutrition, disease prevention, etc.
