Maternity Foundation is a Danish tech non-profit that works to ensure a safer childbirth for women and newborns, everywhere. Through our Safe Delivery Program, we use digital training- and learning tools to support and train skilled birth attendants across Africa, Asia, and soon the Middle East. We work from a shared vision that it should never cost life to give life.
Over the past 10 years, we have grown from a smaller Danish NGO working on the ground in Ethiopia to a global actor within digital health and learning for skilled birth attendants. Our mobile solution, SafeDelivery, is currently implemented across multiple countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia and has reached more than 200,000 health workers – even in the most remote and fragile settings. We work with partners such as UNFPA, UNICEF, Ministries of Health, Plan International, Red Cross and Save the Children in more than 15 countries.
We are a global team of almost 40 colleagues in Denmark, Ethiopia, India, and the US. We come from various backgrounds – global health, midwifery, anthropology, IT, and the business world – and we take pride in an entrepreneurial spirit and a can-do attitude. Together, we are an ambitious and driven team working in a warm and informal atmosphere.
