ICM Regional Conference Europe
Midwives360: Associations for a changing world
8 November 2024 — 10 November 2024
Berlin, Germany
English
Hosted By:
ICM
Join us at the ICM 2024 Regional Conferences!
This year ICM and the German Midwives Association (Deutscher Hebammenverband) will be hosting two regional conferences specially tailored for midwives seeking to enhance their skills beyond clinical practice, to build a successful midwife association. We’ll focus on important topics like leadership, finances, advocacy, and more.
The Europe conference will bring together in Berlin midwives and stakeholders from the region. Our goal is to create a supportive and adaptable community in today’s ever-changing world.
So why “Midwives360”? It symbolizes our approach to midwifery from every angle – a complete circle. This conference aims to break down borders, fostering collaboration, innovation, and shared learning among midwives. We believe in addressing the 360-degree spectrum of challenges and opportunities that midwifery presents. Expect an engaging exploration of various dimensions of midwifery.
Key topics include using data for global advocacy, strengthening leadership, amplifying the impact of midwives’ associations, and exploring models of midwife-led care. We’ll also discuss supporting women in humanitarian crises, advocating for increased investment in midwives’ associations, and strategizing to reduce global maternal mortality.
Our interactive formats, including workshops, and networking events, ensure diverse participation and actionable outcomes.
Workshops
ICM’s regional conferences will feature a series of workshops over three days.
Day One and Day Two will focus on workshops that engage midwives in building their organisations and provide opportunities to enhance midwifery practice and build capacity within your association. Whether you’re part of a national midwives’ association, a regional or local branch, or a student organisation, these sessions are designed to support your growth and development.
All participants will be allocated into groups and scheduled to attend all six workshops during days one and two.
Day Three will offer half- and full-day midwifery practice skills workshops, covering a variety of topics organised by ICM and its partners. These sessions will delve deeper into practical skills and advanced techniques, ensuring that participants leave with enhanced knowledge and capabilities to apply in their daily practice.
Ahead of the conference, delegates will receive an email prompting them to select the specific workshops they wish to attend on day three. Due to space limitations, registration for workshops on that day will be mandatory.
*All conference sessions will be conducted in English.
