Since 1992, International Midwives’ Day has been held on May 5.
This day is observed to honor midwives’ work and promote awareness about their importance in providing crucial care to mothers and their newborns.
Midwifery is defined as skilled, competent, and loving care for pregnant females, newborn babies, and families throughout pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and the early weeks of the child’s life.
Midwives are often the first and only source of care.
According to WHO, 9 million nurses and midwives are required for universal health coverage by 2030.
