Nearly a month has passed since a devastating earthquake and a tsunami shattered Indonesia's Aceh Province. Tens of thousands of lives were lost and many more were left homeless, with some areas still facing a shortage of basic supplies.
In the southern city of Meulaboh, children can be seen scavenging for food in the streets as others try to salvage rubble and rebuild their lives.
Nearly 470,000 people in Aceh are homeless and living in sub-standard conditions. Many of the displaced live in crowded camps, where health, nutrition and sanitation are precarious at best.
This month more than 800 women will be giving birth in Aceh's camps.
Zahriatun Wardani, midwife, said, "With proper delivery equipment, the birthing process can be done in clean, sterile conditions. But if we don't have proper medical equipment and pharmaceuticals, then the babies will be at great risk of infections and tetanus."
However, the United Nations Population Fund is trying to provide kits that will enable more sanitary deliveries for women.
