Strengthening quality midwifery education for Universal Health Coverage 2030: Framework for action
2 July 2019
| Global report
Overview
The Framework for Action to Strengthen Midwifery Education is a guide to
develop high-quality, sustainable pre- and in-service midwifery
education to save the lives of mothers and newborns. Launched the 72nd
World Health Assembly in May 2019, it has been developed by WHO, UNFPA,
UNICEF and ICM and includes a seven-step action plan for use by all
stakeholders in maternal and newborn health.
This report combines the evidence with the findings from a series of global multi-stakeholder consultations, and a final online survey. The consultations addressed five key questions including: what are the three strategic priorities; what is new, radical thinking; what will the impact be at country level; how will this be achieved, and how is this relevant to humanitarian emergencies?
