How One Woman Pushed Tanzania to Change Laws for Preemie Babies | Doris Mollel | Ep.6
Episode Description
Babies born too soon are often born invisible to health systems, policy, and public concern. Born prematurely herself, Doris Mollel is the founder of the Doris Mollel Foundation and has made it her life’s mission to support mothers and babies who begin their journey too soon. She discusses the stigma surrounding prematurity, her foundation’s neonatal care projects, and how better policy—and compassion—save lives.
