CAR: MSF Offers Women Freedom From FistulaApril 12, 2012
In January 2012, 50 women from northwest Central African Republic traveled to a hospital run by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), to undergo surgery that would change their lives forever. One of those women was 17-year-old Awa, who made the journey to Boguila to be treated for a fistula she developed two years ago, during the birth of her first child. Obstetric fistulas are devastating injuries that affect more than two million women around the world, mostly in Africa.
