1 of 3     Women in rural areas of developing countries report no antenatal care
 
Millennium Development Goal 5: Improve maternal health
Target: Reduce by three quarters the maternal mortality ratio

Women reporting no antenatal care are most likely to be living in rural areas and to have only primary education or no education at all. Among all the developing countries with data, one third of women in rural areas and two thirds of women with primary or no schooling report no antenatal care.
