In 2022, no woman should suffer the indignity of an obstetric fistula, however in Ethiopia, sadly, this devastating childbirth injury affects an estimated 1,500 women each year.
Survivors, often voiceless and marginalised, tend to live in impoverished rural communities, suffering in isolation. The burden of living with obstetric fistula was reported by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation in 2017 as comparable to living with terminal cancer and double the burden of blindness.
However, fistula can be repaired with a single life changing surgery.
Founded by pioneering Australian surgeons Catherine and Reg Hamlin, our work reflects a lifetime quest to provide world-leading treatment to some of the most marginalised women in the world.
We are dedicated to restoring the health and dignity of women who have survived fistula and exist to raise funds and awareness for Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia, which treats over 1,500 women annually.
