On May 19, 2022, MOMENTUM Safe Surgery in Family Planning and Obstetrics hosted a global webinar to recognize the International Day to End Obstetric Fistula (May 23) and highlight a crucial aspect of holistic female genital fistula care: rehabilitation and reintegration services for fistula clients. This webinar convened advocates and leaders in comprehensive fistula programming and showcased evidence-based approaches from Guinea, Ethiopia, Nigeria, and Tanzania, among other settings, describing how physiotherapy, social reintegration, economic empowerment, community-based rehabilitation and prevention of recurrence, and the opportunity to advocate for safe motherhood care can transform the lives of fistula survivors.
