Description
In this module, the participants discuss and analyse a case on disrespect and abuse in obstetric care (vide infra).

They will also be encouraged to consider multiple dimensions of inequality to unpack the case.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand how different building blocks of health systems interact in a real-world scenario
