A will is more than just a piece of paper; it’s a legal document that ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes when you’re no longer around. However, one crucial question often overlooked is, “Who will hold your will?” This is where will custody comes into play—a term that refers to the safekeeping of your will until it’s needed. In this article, we will explore what will custody entails, who can hold your will, and why it’s important to choose the right custodian.

BANGKOK, Jul 17 2006 (IPS) – For Thais living with HIV, the country s heat and humidity have been one more enemy because the life-extending drugs they need are temperature sensitive and need to be stored in refrigerators.
So news of an anti-AIDS drug that retains potency when kept under the normal tropical climatic conditions of around 30 degrees Celsius was a welcome development for those who are on second-line medication.

LILONGWE, Mar 31 2011 (IPS) – Post-partum haemorrhage is the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide, according to the World Health Organisation. A decade of applying research to midwifery practice in one Malawi district demonstrates that PPH is quite easy to prevent.

Malawi has an extremely high rate of maternal mortality, at 807 women per 100,000 live births, with 25 percent of these due to PPH. But these figures represent an improvement over 2004 when maternal mortality was 1,120 per 100,000 live births.

Maternal deaths are overwhelmingly preventable, if warning signs …
NEW YORK, Jun 2 2011 (IPS) – Several years ago, anyone calling for an end to Washington s war on drugs would be considered a heretic. Today, high- level politicians and business people, backed by thousands of regular citizens, are doing just that.
The idea that there could be a mass public campaign for decriminalisation, because I didn t know anything about the issue, I thought that was a fringe perspective, Ricken Patel, co-founder and executive director of the global web movement , told IPS.
He presented a global petition calling for an end to the drug war to the Thursday. On Friday, he will meet with United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to present him with the same petition.
The Global Commission, whose members include former U.N. chief Kofi Annan, Gree…

NAIROBI, Kenya, Aug 27 2019 (IPS) – Graduate students of the London School of Economics and Political Science gathered at Kenya’s coast in September 2018, where the Secretary-General of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) Dr Mukhisa Kituyi told them: “With your international credibility, it is easier and tempting to leave and take out of the continent the little intellectual resource that could solve problems their countries face.”
