Maternal mortality in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia accounts for 86% of the maternal mortality rate in the world. In Uganda, the maternal mortality ratio (MMR) is still high at 438/100,000 live births while under-five mortality is at 90/1,000 live births. In Uganda, a community health worker strategy, Village Health Teams (VHTs), was introduced in 2001 to help address maternal/ child mortality challenges. VHTs are an equivalent of Health Centre I – responsible for the health of community members at the household level. VHTs serve as a community’s initial point of contact for health and social services, as well as helping to build social capital and understanding of basic health services and lifestyle choices. As of 2014, over 170,000 VHTs have been trained and deployed across Uganda. The purpose of this study was to explore the contribution of VHTs’ health promotion practices to maternal health in south west Uganda.
