ACEPHAP team concludes Scale-up Training on E-motive in Gombe State

The African Centre of Excellence for Population Health and Policy (ACEPHAP) has successfully concluded its scale-up training on the E-MOTIVE initiative in Gombe State. The final session of the training took place on Thursday, June 3rd, 2025, at the Federal Teaching Hospital, Gombe.

The E-MOTIVE training is designed to equip healthcare providers, especially midwives and frontline maternal health workers, with critical knowledge and skills to implement life-saving interventions during childbirth. The training focuses on practical strategies and tools to identify and manage Postpartum Haemorrhage (PPH), a leading cause of maternal deaths. By adopting the E-MOTIVE approach, health workers can respond more swiftly and effectively to prevent complications and save the lives of mothers and newborns.

Beyond improving clinical practice, the training initiative also seeks to strengthen the broader healthcare system. It supports policy advocacy and promotes systemic changes that can lead to long-term reductions in maternal mortality. Through this approach, ACEPHAP aims to create a ripple effect of improved maternal outcomes across Nigeria and the West African region.

Before arriving in Gombe, ACEPHAP had already conducted similar training programs in health facilities in Kano, Borno, and Bauchi States.
