My name is Pélagie. I am a medical doctor graduated in 2005 and working in the Department of Paediatrics of a public referral hospital.
My country Burkina Faso is a francophone country in West Africa. It is one the poorest countries of the world.
Such as in all developing countries, health is a big challenge in Burkina Faso and all the efforts are made to improve it.
My particular interest is maternal and neonatal health because the maternal and neonatal mortality rates are high and inacceptable.
