Care Australia

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Families in poor and rural communities often don’t have clean water, basic toilets or essential medicines and healthcare. Even those in formal employment can struggle to access quality healthcare, make risky decisions based on misinformation or lack the freedom to make their own decisions about their health. These can negatively impact school attendance, worker performance and families’ ability to lift themselves out of poverty.

Supporting women and families to make informed decisions about their health and nutrition can have impacts far beyond their home. When women and their partners have access to clean water, family planning information and services, adequate nutrition, and quality healthcare, everyone benefits. Maternal mortality rates drop, children are healthier and incomes rise.

CARE’s extensive experience ensuring access to quality health information and services has helped women around the globe lead happier, healthier lives.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”29314″ img_size=”large” include_caption=”yes”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]
