Does the World Have Enough Midwives? February 23, 2015. 
The World Health Organization has been requested by member-states to prepare a global strategy on Human Resources for Health by 2016. In parallel, the UN Secretary General is requesting a revised update of the “every woman every child” strategy. These two processes offer an opportunity to ensure alignment on the health workforce requirements and the midwifery workforce requirements. This event was an opportunity to ensure the alignment of these two processes.
