The factors that lead to high child and maternal mortality rate in Sub-Saharan Africa are related to the level of danger still associated with pregnancy in this region due to a poorly developed health sector. Due to the lack of proper pre-natal care along with proper facilities and doctors to perform births both the child and mother are placed at a higher risk. In Sub-Saharan Africa there are shortages of both resources and access to many modern technologies and medical services which can be seen as leading to higher rates of infant and mother mortality rates.

Answer from: bonnysvalentine

Sub-Saharan Africa remains an underdeveloped portion of the continent. As a result, it lacks certain key resources that would stabilize risk factors for high mortality rates among both children and mothers. Since most of sub-Saharan Africa is an agricultural economy, the more children a family has, the more workers there are who can bring in income. Furthermore, many indigenous tribal cultures do not have family planning methods, such as knowledge of or access to contraceptives. Education and healthcare systems are severely lacking, with most mothers delivering their children unattended by a qualified healthcare professional who could intervene in dire circumstances of maternal or fetal distress. Lastly, childhood diseases that could be prevented or mediated become deadly due to improper nutrition and the lack of access to antibiotics, which stems from depressed economies.
