The world needs 9 million more nurses and midwives to achieve #HealthForAll by 2030
Safe Motherhood Week 2020 joins the celebration of the International Year of the Nurse and Midwife.
With the theme Working together with midwives & nurses for a positive pregnancy experience in a post-COVID-19 era, Safe Motherhood Week recognises the extraordinary skills and devotion it takes to be a nurse or a midwife, especially in a pandemic-stricken world.
