Raising parents' voices stillbirth advocacy toolkit

Section navigation

These toolkits provides parents with information on:

  • Stillbirths - overview, causes and risk factors.
  • The impact of stillbirth on parents.
  • Advocacy as a tool for change in stillbirth prevention and bereavement care.
  • Ways of advocating for change in stillbirth prevention and bereavement care.
  • Coping strategies for advocacy-related stress.

We hope that as parents learn more about stillbirth, its impact, and ways to raise their voices as a way of addressing stillbirth-related challenges, they will find it easier to discuss their experience of stillbirth and speak both for themselves and on behalf of others to facilitate change in the healthcare sector, at the community and at the national level, ultimately leading to improvement in stillbirth prevention and bereavement care.
