Doctor Susan D`Helment is CEO of the ? Gates Foundation. On Jan 26th, she spoke³ with the scientific american about the goals the international ? foundation put forth⁴ in its just released annual letter. This a ? area that's so important and so challenging. It's central to think about all the aspects of that, for example, one of the area is that the foundation is now founding the family planning. So that a woman, or a young woman in particular can decide when she wants to become pregnant. This is a decision she can make and she can space her children. So I think it starts with that, we also have a big focus on nutrition so that our mom has been having a good nutritional⁵ status when she's pregnant again, very helpful. And then, again working with the local group ?administry of health to make sure that a woman can deliver at a facility where things are there available should she need the kind of care the having a baby at home wouldn't enable her to have.
