Join HRiC’s Key Stakeholder Advisory Group

Midwifing Us Through the Epidemic

Now is the time to press our governments and policy makers to support midwifery care in communities as part of policies to address climate change or Green New Deals that are being prepared around the world – to make sure we are well-prepared for the next emergency or pandemic. We ignore midwifery models of care, essential midwifery skills, community and home birth at our peril – future generations will depend on them as part of crisis response.

HRiC is forming a global network of lawyers, researchers and advocates dedicated to improving maternity care – everywhere. Join us!

Human Rights in Childbirth (HRiC) is developing a new strategy to inform our advocacy and strategic direction over the next three years.

Our goal is to develop a sustainable network of key stakeholders in order to make full use of, and build on, our collective skills and capacity to defend maternal and infant rights at the global level and inform advocacy at the regional and national level. We will refer to this network as the Key Stakeholder Advisory Group (KSAG).

We aim to hold inclusive online meetings which focus on different issues affecting different regions and which offer an opportunity for engagement across and between regional representatives. We seek to build a sustainable forum aimed at increasing our capacity and empowering stakeholders. You can read our detailed Terms of Reference here, to get a better understanding of the project.

To submit your interest, please complete this survey by 15 May 2021.

Please share this opportunity as far and wide as possible through your networks. Questions can be forwarded to info@humanrightsinchildbirth.org

We look forward to working with you!
