Our goal
Our research is looking to improve the quality of care in Obstetrics. Our current focus is to make the pregnancy journey safer for families with an international background. We are based in Bremen, Germany at Constructor University. We are also part of a European research network called Health CASCADE.
Health CASCADE are a group of researchers tasked with developing a set of guidelines and tools, grounded in evidence, to help researchers work with the individuals and communities that they are trying to help. Our goal is to make co-creation trust worthy and apply it ethically.
