Anguganak, Safe Motherhood Program, PNG

About the campaign
The aim of this program is to provide readily available clean water for health care -
1. As more women seek the safest option of a health care centre birth it is imperative that the centre is capable of providing a safe clean environment and that staff are able to prevent cross infection through good hand hygiene.
2. Handwashing, clean equipment, clean environment, water for drinking and general hygiene and sanitation all require a reliable water supply.
3. Labouring women should be provided with privacy and dignity through the provision of sheets on the labour bed. Without reliable water this basic courtesy cannot be offered as soiled linen cannot be laundered.

It has a special relationship with the largest group of Christian health professionals in Australia, the Christian Medical and Dental Fellowship of Australia (CMDFA) through which it was established. Many of the CMDFA members have worked for a number of years overseas in health work.
