Thisis bringing togetherinto one Toolkit the updated education materials for maternal, newborn, sexual, reproductive and mental health for life-long learning in compassionate midwifery care, including during pandemics and for use in fragile and humanitarian settings. In contrast to more traditional education materials, the Toolkit is uniquely focused on a midwifery model of care, putting women, newborns and their families at the centre.
