Using data between 2003 and 2016, this paper assesses the degree and evolution of socio‐economic inequalities in maternal health outcomes in four African countries. The study measures the trends of socio‐economic inequalities in maternal healthcare and assesses the sources of socio‐economic inequalities in maternal health through a decomposition approach. We find cross‐country differences in the evolution of maternal healthcare inequalities. Rwanda and Uganda witnessed a decline in pro‐rich inequalities, whereas changes in Ethiopia and Kenya have been mixed. Further, the study finds significant contributions of personal characteristics of the woman to inequalities in maternal healthcare access.

四个非洲国家孕产妇保健覆盖率不平等的趋势和前因

本文使用2003年至2016年的数据,评估了四个非洲国家孕产妇保健结果中社会经济不平等的程度和演变。该研究测量了孕产妇保健中社会经济不平等的趋势,并通过分解方法评估了孕产妇保健中社会经济不平等的根源。我们发现,孕产妇医疗保健不平等现象的发展存在跨国差异。卢旺达和乌干达的亲富人不平等现象有所减少,而埃塞俄比亚和肯尼亚的变化则喜忧参半。此外,该研究发现妇女的个人特征对孕产妇医疗保健不平等的重要贡献。
