Born Safe Global goes live!

Maybe it’s no surprise that after years as the “neglected stepchild of public health,” our push to get safer surgery into the mainstream begins with a baby.

Not just any baby: the children of our friends, family, colleagues whose lives were saved – whose lives began – with a safe operation.

My kids were born via C-section. Thankfully routine here. Not-so-routine across the globe. BornSafeCharlie, BornSafeAlexis. #BornSafeGlobal
