Operation Fistula

Operation Fistula’s mission is to end fistula for every woman, everywhere. We exist to create a fistula free world. Obstetric fistula is a childbirth injury that results from obstructed labour. This terrible condition affects one million women in Africa and South Asia, and persists because women have no access to safe prenatal, obstetric care. It is a significant indicator of gender inequality, and we want to end it.
