The 32nd International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) Virtual Triennial Congress has been taking place every Wednesday throughout June and NMBI was invited to speak at this year’s event.

Dawn Johnston, Director of Midwifery presented on the work undertaken to develop a National Competency Assessment tool for student midwives. 

The ICM represents members in over 120 countries and works to strengthen professional associations of midwives throughout the world.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, this year’s conference was held virtually with midwives from around the world attending the sessions via Zoom.
