Many women and communities are unaware of what constitutes OBV and their rights in healthcare settings.

There are also insufficient support systems or forums for women to voice their experiences, perpetuating
silence on the issue.

Another factor is limited training for healthcare professionals to provide respectful and dignified maternal care.
