Round 2: Midwifery Webinar

Join us virtually on Thursday, June 24th from 12-1pm EST for a webinar hosted by Centers of Excellence in Maternal and Child Health at Boston University School of Public Health and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health

In April, we hosted part 1 of our webinar discussing midwifery as an evidence-based solution and protective model to address the important challenges in women’s health care. 

Participants raised important comments and questions, many asking “now what?”. What policies have worked to promote midwifery in communities and hospitals, and what is left for us to do? We are inspired to provide a forum for the “now what?” conversation. Please join us for Part 2.

Here is the recording for Part 1. If you were not able to attend, we urge you to listen before the second webinar.

Featuring three renowned speakers:

  • Ebony Marcelle, CNM, MS, FACNM,  Director of Midwifery at Community of Hope
  • Holly Powell Kennedy, PhD, CNM, FACNM, FAAN, midwifery researcher and Varney Professor of Midwifery at Yale School of Nursing
  • Eugene R. Declercq, PhD, MBA, Professor of Community Health Sciences, Boston University School of Public Health

This webinar will be of special interest to midwives, public health or policy students, state Title V or other MCH practitioners, and those interested in equitable health care and maternal mortality.
