CARMMA

Soul City’s Pregnancy with Dignity Campaign in support of the Campaign of Accelerated Reduction in Maternal and Child Mortality in Africa (CARMMA).

The Campaign advocates for policy intervention and is motivated by the fundamental right to human dignity enshrined in Section 10 of the South African Constitution. The concept of human dignity has become a central organizing principal in the idea of universal human rights. Dignity in terms of the campaign refers to selfworth, personal standards and how pregnant woman perceive themselves and are perceived by others.
