Bangladesh is one of the signatories to the Millennium Declaration 2000, of which, improving maternal health is one of eight goals.

The main objective of this paper is to make an extensive review on selected studies on maternal mortality, with particular reference to: (1) historical and present interventions to avert maternal mortality, and (2) the six targets of MDG Five set for Bangladesh. A conceptual framework has been developed where the global target is integrated into the targets set by Bangladesh.
