Researchers at McMaster University have conducted a scoping review mapping maternal and infant health research in Morocco, shedding light on important global health issues.
- The first map of Maternal and Infant Health research in Morocco spanning from 2000 to 2022 has been created by McMaster University researchers.
- The study suggests a different approach to studying global health by exploring the gaps and "unseen" aspects of MIH research in Morocco.
- The scoping review revealed that research on MIH focused on developed and high-income regions, neglecting rural, lower-income areas predominantly populated by Tamazight-speaking communities.
- The Morocco-Canada Network in Maternal and Infant Health was established to foster research collaboration and exchange between Canadian and Moroccan researchers.
- The review aims to be a resource for Moroccan researchers and policymakers to inform future research directions, clinical practices, and advocacy efforts in maternal and infant health.
