The theme for this year’s International Day of the Midwife (IDM), is Midwives: A Vital Climate Solution. How do these two things intersect?
A midwife is a healthcare provider who is trained to provide uncomplicated obstetric and gynecological services.
Climate change is one of the greatest health challenges of our time. Our warming planet has more heatwaves, more floods, and more natural disasters that significantly impact the health of women and babies.
Midwives are a vital solution in adapting health systems to climate change, and lowering carbon emissions overall. Midwives deliver safe and environmentally sustainable health services and are first responders when climate disasters hit.
Some decide to stop family building efforts due to emotional and financial limits. Intense grief is a part of the journey into “childless not by choice” or “childfree after infertility”. Let’s be understanding that infertility journeys do not always end with little ones. Let’s eliminate the stigma by acknowledging people have meaning without children. Let’s break the stereotypes.
