Kenya is unlikely to meet the global Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target of reducing maternal deaths to less than 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030, according to a new United Nations report.

The report, Trends in Maternal Mortality Estimates 2000 to 2023, shows that Kenya remains off track to meeting the SDG target for maternal mortality, despite notable improvements over the past two decades.
