In this June 6, 2017 photo, midwife Ana Choque uses a spring balance to weigh newborn Abraham Dilan after delivering him at his parents' home in El Alto, Bolivia. The government is tapping into the strong cultural bond between Bolivia's indigenous women and midwives, and is incorporating them into the health system as it strives to lower Bolivia's maternal mortality, the highest in South America and among the highest in the Western Hemisphere.
