I signed the petition to help women in third world countries and so should you.

Mother's Day: We can change women's lives

Mother’s Day is an opportunity to honour and celebrate the women who provide care and inspiration in our lives.

It is also an opportunity to call for the protection of the rights of women in pregnany and childbirth.

Join us to take action.

This Mother’s Day 2011, Amnesty International is calling for the protection of women’s lives around the world, focusing on the need for life-saving maternal health care services in Peru.

In Peru, hundreds of women die every year in pregnancy or childbirth - the vast majority of these deaths are preventable.
