As we recognize and honor Black Maternal Health Week (#BMHW24), we are inspired by the commitment and actions displayed by each one of you towards ensuring equity in maternal health. This year, we are hosting a photo campaign titled "Celebrating BMHW – Equity in Action" and we invite all of you to participate.
We encourage you to capture and share compelling photographs of the activities you've organized for BMHW24. These can be your dedicated teams in action, educational events, community gatherings, or any other endeavor highlighting your contribution towards equity in maternal health.
Please ensure you have obtained the necessary permissions to share these images.
To submit your photos, please follow these steps:
- Ensure the photograph is at high resolution for optimal quality.
- Include a brief description or caption for every photograph you're submitting.
- Email your photographs to arronoel@stanford.edu.
Your contributions will help us showcase the collective efforts driving equity during this important week. The photos will be shared across our social media platforms, providing recognition and visibility to your incredible work.
