EEZER INITIATIVE

The Eezer Initiative – Motorcycle ambulances for reduced maternal mortality

Elnet Foundation is partnering with Eezer Initiative to provide affordable and safe transport to clinics for pregnant women with the aim of reducing maternal mortality in Africa. Eezer has developed a so called motorcycle ambulance, a simple but highly innovative means of transport which uses motorcycles and a safe equipage to comfortably and safely reaches the most remote locations on the country side.

Getting from home to a clinic to get qualified help in a cheap and safe way is a major challenge in the African countryside. Many women die because they do not arrive on time. The Eezer Initiative’s strategy and theory of change to influence the maternal mortality issue is grounded in the “Three Delays Model” (www.maternityworldwide.org). Where the second area “transport” is the primary entrance to the Eezer Initiative. This does not exclude activities in the first and third areas.

The model with “The Three Delays” shows three bottlenecks for the pregnant woman:

The delay in the home of deciding whether to seek care or not (where cultural factors, the man’s decision-making role etc are of great importance)
The delay of treatment when procuring means of transport and the transport itself on bad roads with long distances.
The delay in treatment once the patient has arrived at health centers or hospitals.

The Eezer Initiative’s entry into the maternal mortality issue is the second delay, where Eezer develops solutions for safe and cheap transport between home and clinic. At Elnet Foundation, we are proud to collaborate with Eezer Initiative to bring life saving motorcycle ambulances to the countryside in our countries of operation.
