Background: Poverty remains a key barrier to accessing essential maternal health services, particularly in low- and middle-income countries like Malawi.

This underutilisation is not solely driven by a lack of financial resources but also by a range of non-monetary factors that constitute multidimensional poverty, such as limited access to education, healthcare services, and infrastructure.
