By honouring midwives, UNESCO is honouring all women themselves. Beyond the context of the current medicalisation of birth and violence against women, the conference, open to the public, focuses on women’s own capacities to realise themselves in a chosen maternity and how midwives, in their practice, establish themselves as partners in their own expectations, choices and knowledge. with the father or co-parent.

Join the webinar as part of the partnership between the International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) and Laerdal Medical to strengthen competency-based midwifery education globally.

ICM’s five-part webinar series shares insights on successful strategies for implementing midwife-led birthing centres in low- and middle-income countries, providing valuable evidence and lessons learned for their expansion.

The Midwifery Educator Knowledge Exchange, hosted by AIME partners, is intended for midwife educators and regulators. The series offers webinars highlighting collaborative networking, research promotion, continuous professional development, and leadership advocacy.

The 2023 Congress is a celebration after six years of being apart, emphasising the theme “Together again: from evidence to reality” to highlight the collective effort to implement evidence supporting the investment case for midwives and secure professional autonomy at the country level with widespread support.

In anticipation of the 33rd ICM Triennial Congress, #IDM2023 celebrates the return to face-to-face interactions, emphasising evidence-based support for midwifery. We will also announce winners of our Take a Midwife to Bali Contest.
