Featured Segment
Robin Lim - Hero of the Year
By Sr. Executive Producer - Kelly Flynn, Segment Producer/Director - Luke Wiles, Editor -Mike Denny
CNN Heroes uses the power of media and technology to highlight and support those making a positive change in the world.
CNN HERO of the Year: Robin Lim is the founder of Bumi Sehat, a non-profit, village-based organization that runs two community health centers in Bali and Aceh, Indonesia. They provide health care for both children and adults and Midwifery services to ensure gentle births welcoming approximately 600 new babies into the world each year.
"981 mothers in the prime of their lives are dying from complications of pregnancy and childbirth. Supporting your Midwife to Mother care is the answer, because Midwives are the bridge on which mothers may walk upon to cross over into Motherhood, Safely." I also said: "Every Mother Counts and Healthcare is a Human right."
