dc.description.abstractSixty participants from 10 countries including four English-speaking (Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Sierra Leone) and six French-speaking (Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, Morocco, Niger, Senegal) attended the workshop, which presented data from the ten countries as the basis for discussion and comparison of content, costs and financing of maternal health fee exemption policies. Countries also identified priority activities to implement to improve their maternal health fee exemption policies upon their return home. There is a lack of coordination both among different fee exemption policies in place (children under five, pregnant women, etc.) and other major initiatives designed to improve financial access.en
