sexual, reproductive, maternal & child health

insight impact has worked on a variety of health research topics. We specialize in questions surrounding sexual, reproductive, maternal & child health.

Maternity waiting homes aim to combat physical access barriers to essential maternal health care by providing women with housing close to health facilities that are equipped with emergency obstetric care so that women are already staying close to essential services when they go into labor.

After spending days with these women lodged at a maternity waiting home in South Kivu province, DRC insight impact consultants said good bye to the women who provided incredible insight for our research questions surrounding fertility, reproduction, gender dynamics and access to care. Some women were pregnant for the first time while others were pregnant with their eighth child.
