BirthRight Foundation Africa (BRFA), Mr Michael Dimeji Mivic is a Nigerian philanthropist and Real Estate Developer. BirthRight Foundation was founded in 2016 as a result of a desire to help others and personal experience with several community outreaches executed. As the Founder-President of BirthRight Foundation Africa (BRFA) believes that poverty and cultural practices with poor and inadequate primary healthcare services influence women in Nigeria to settle for untrained traditional birth attendants, despite the serious risks involved.
We are committed to educating and the reorientation of women in Nigeria and Africa through community-based health programs and initiatives in order to achieve a reduced maternal mortality rate and as well bringing awareness to other safe birthing methods.
To prevent maternal and newborn mortality. Contribute to building a Nigeria and, by extension, Africa where all women have access to affordable, quality health care.
To provide adequate financial assistance for the caesarean section of pregnant women when vaginal delivery pose a risk to the baby and mother.
To improve maternal health through training hospital managers and encouraging policymakers to take practical steps from the survey taken by the foundation.
To cater for young widows below age 45 which our society usually never recognize as widow.
To educate pregnant women on the risk of local delivery homes that put baby and mother at risk of maternal death.
This video, created by Nucleus Medical Media, depicts a normal vaginal birth using a time-lapse effect. Strong uterine contractions push the fetus (baby) forcibly through the birth canal during labor. Concurrently, a picture-in-picture effect at the upper right shows the baby’s head moving through the mother’s pelvic outlet.
