We often think of women’s rights abuses taking place in developing countries. What has been going under the radar is the system wide abuse of women in North America. Lack of informed consent in childbirth is a violation of your human rights. Learn more about what informed consent is, what constitutes a violation, and what you can do to help stop the abuse of women’s rights in childbirth.
The Maternity Experiences Survey (MES) is a national survey of Canadian women’s experiences, perceptions, knowledge and practices before conception and during pregnancy, birth and the early months of parenthood. The MES is a project of the Public Health Agency of Canada’s Canadian Perinatal Surveillance System, which monitors and reports on determinants and outcomes of maternal, fetal and infant health in Canada. The MES was developed and implemented by the Public Health Agency of Canada in collaboration with Statistics Canada.
