In this qualitative study, I used an ethnographic approach to provide an understanding about the place of birth in rural and semiurban Kafa Zone, Ethiopia. I interviewed women about birth at home and asked what would happen if there were serious problems and a woman was taken to a health facility. The development of health services aimed at reducing maternal mortality implies that the place of birth must change from home to health facility, but the distance from international policy to its implementation is vast and the pathway is not a direct, linear route.
在这项定性研究中，我采用了人种志方法来了解埃塞俄比亚卡法地区农村和半城市地区的分娩地点。我采访了在家分娩的妇女，并询问如果出现严重问题且妇女被送往医疗机构会发生什么情况。旨在降低孕产妇死亡率的卫生服务发展意味着分娩地点必须从家中转移到医疗机构，但从国际政策到其实施的距离巨大，且途径并非直接的线性路线。
