Learning from women: Improving experiences of respectful maternity care during unplanned caesarean birth for women with diverse ethnicity and racial backgrounds.

Problem: Women from diverse ethnicity and racial backgrounds have few opportunities to share birth experiences to inform improvements in care.

Background: Respectful maternity care is recognised as a global women's health priority. Integrating that framework into diverse care systems and models may help bridge care gaps for women who had unexpected birth experiences, including unplanned caesarean birth.
