Le périlleux voyage de plusieurs heures pour obtenir de l'aide auquel font face les futures mères du Soudan
Les femmes enceintes au Soudan perdent leurs bébés et parfois leur propre vie en raison d'un manque de soutien en soins de santé spécialisés, une conséquence directe de la guerre en cours, ont déclaré vendredi les humanitaires de l'ONU.
Dans une alerte, l'agence des Nations Unies pour la santé sexuelle et reproductive, l'UNFPA, a souligné les besoins urgents parmi les futures mères à Golo, une ville montagneuse dans le Darfour central, à l'ouest du Soudan. Il n'y a qu'un seul hôpital capable de pratiquer une césarienne à des kilomètres à la ronde.
« La plupart des femmes y arrivent depuis les villages de montagne à pied, souvent en marchant pendant des heures ou en étant transportées sur des brancards en bois rudimentaires à travers les montagnes, alors qu'elles sont déjà en travail ou saignent, » a déclaré Fabrizia Falcione, Représentante de l'UNFPA au Soudan. « Celles qui peuvent se le permettre louent un âne, mais beaucoup de femmes ne le peuvent pas. Beaucoup arrivent quand il est déjà trop tard pour elles et aussi pour leurs bébés. »
