International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics

‘Part of an international event for Why Poverty? (www.whypoverty.net), the documentary will air in Autumn 2012 on BBC1 in the UK, PBS in the USA and 46 broadcasters internationally. This is a huge opportunity to reach a global audience about important issues affecting women and their babies.

‘Alongside the documentary we are building an online gallery and are asking parents everywhere to contribute by sending home videos of birth and the first moments with their newborn babies. A selection of this footage will be included in the final documentary.  All information on how to send footage can be found here: www.centuryfilmsltd.com/welcometotheworld.htm
