© MIDWEST INDEPENDENT RESEARCH


Midwest Independent Research creates free educational websites on a variety of subjects in eight categories: Cultural; Economic; Health Care; Health Promotion; International; Practical; Science; and Social. Our purpose is to provide college and high school students and adults with educational material and book lists on important subjects.

Some of the websites correspond to academic courses such as Anthropology, History, Life Sciences, Mathematics, and Sociology and others are oriented to current issues such as Co-ops, Global Warming, Native Trees, Progressives, Race, and Wildlife.

More than 215 million women who wish to protect themselves from unintended and potentially unsafe pregnancy do not have access to modern contraception. In 2010, the Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition established the HANDtoHAND Campaign[15] with the goal of reaching 100 million additional users of modern contraception by 2015. Reaching this goal will meet the family planning needs of 80 percent of women in low- and middle-income countries. It will mean 96 million fewer unintended pregnancies, 54 million fewer abortions, 110,000 fewer mothers dying in pregnancy and childbirth, and 1.4 million fewer infant deaths. The Reproductive Health Supplies Coalition is leading the effort by urging stakeholders in both the public and private sectors to commit resources and support to reach this goal. At the September United Nations Summit on the Millennium Development Goals in New York, AusAID, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Dfid and USAID adopted the 100 million metric as a cornerstone of their International Alliance for Reproductive, Maternal and Newborn Health.[16]
