Midwives play a vital, positive role in protecting and promoting maternal and newborn health outcomes. #MNHMovementMaker @Nehamanks says we can see immediate improvements in #QualityOfCare when small changes are made to the enabling environments of midwives.

Why do female healthcare workers not have a voice?
Where are the lady health workers?🤔 A recent #manel (all-male panel) presenting the LADY #HealthWorker Strategic Plan in #Pakistan raises the question: do men still speak for women in global health? Nothing about us, without us! Time to prioritize 🚺 representation in healthcare decision-making

Thank you @WGHPakistan @womeninGH for highlighting the important work of midwives and their incredible partnerships with the families they serve @pushcampaignorg
For International Day of the Midwife, we would like to celebrate the crucial role #midwives play in maternal and newborn care. One such leader in #Pakistan is @Nehamanks! Trained midwives like Neha have the potential to save 4.3 million lives annually by 2035. #IDM2023 #health
