Indonesia Reducing Maternal Mortality (IRMA) Principal Investigators: IRMA is a consortium of obstetrics-gynecology researchers from tertiary hospitals, aiming to reduce the maternal mortality and morbidity problem in Indonesia. IRMA was established in 2017 with four centers and officially became part of CoLab in November 2017. IRMA researchers are affiliated with top universities in Indonesia: Universitas Airlangga, Universitas Padjajaran, Universitas Hasannudin and Universitas Sebelas Maret.
