About Nesta

Nesta is an innovation foundation. For us, innovation means turning bold ideas into reality and changing lives for the better. We use our expertise, skills and funding in areas where there are big challenges facing society.

To mark Black History Month, we spotlighted the experts and initiatives close to our work, on our audio conversation series #TheNest on #TwitterSpaces.

Racial injustices that occur during maternity care can have lasting implications on parents, newborns and the trajectory of their family life. How can overcome them?

We were joined by Benash Nazmeen, Midwife, Co-Director of the Association of South Asian Midwives and Chair of the Sheffield Maternity Cooperative, Community of Cultures and Co-Chair for the Racial Injustice in UK Maternity Services Inquiry by Birth Rights Charity.
