Traditional Birth Attendant Training 2022

Despite pandemic and security concerns preventing us from traveling to Niger since November of 2019, our work training traditional birth attendants continues. Prior to the pandemic, we had prepared several women to become trainers themselves, and they have been able to begin conducting training sessions – a bit sooner than we had anticipated! We are now able to purchase all the necessary equipment in Niger. The involuntary interruption of our missions has helped us to focus more closely on how we will achieve our long-term goal of transitioning the matrone training project to the nomads.
