Midwives’ Data Hub

The Midwives’ Data Hub is a first-of-its-kind, open-access platform that brings together global data on midwives, their work, and the health outcomes they impact — all in one place. Developed in partnership with Direct Relief, the Hub is designed to make midwives more visible in global health systems and ensure that data about their contributions is accessible, actionable, and easy to use.
The platform features over 50 data layers from more than 15 trusted sources. It allows users to explore how the presence and support of midwives correlate with key health outcomes across countries and regions. Users can compare workforce data, enabling environments, and sexual, reproductive, maternal, newborn and adolescent health (SRMNAH) indicators — helping to build evidence for investment and policy change.
The Hub is built for midwives, policymakers, educators, advocates, researchers, and journalists. Whether creating a presentation, shaping policy, writing a report, or planning a training, users can download data, visualise trends, and share insights with ease.
In addition to data, the Hub also features a growing collection of themed resource hubs. As it evolves, the Midwives’ Data Hub will continue to grow — expanding its tools, topics, and reach — to ensure that the full picture of midwifery’s impact is always within reach.
