We've all seen videos like this of people clapping for health workers, and now it's midwives' turn to receive praise! The @WHO is organising a clap for midwives on May 5 at noon (local times). Share a video on social media using #ThanksHealthHeros bit.ly/2SrmlZi

To all midwives worldwide, Happy International Day of the midwife! Be bold and brave and speak up for women and girl's rights in your countries and communities. #IDM2020 @De_KNOV @FrankaCadee @liselotte_kwe

The last exchange to Iceland in #TwinningupNorth! Our #midwives stay in the countryside this time. Inspired by workshops on communication and leadership. The twins also work on their individual projects and think about how to show their results in the end exhibition in November!

‘We moved the bed to the side so that we have more space in the middle, because that is where she will give birth!' Visiting the birth center of Selfoss, Iceland. #twinningupnorth #midwives #midiwves4mothers

Very saddened that @KLM is treating breastfeeding as a shameful act and asking mothers to cover up. If people do not want to see a mother #breastfeeding her newborn, they can kindly look away. Do you agree?🤨 @FrankaCadee @koninklijkhuis @UNICEF

.@PMNCH Board members, observers and friends at the 23rd Board meeting #theHague. Here is to uniting for better health and well-being of women, children and adolescents #PowerofPartnership #HealthForAll #EWECisME

Today is International Day of the Midwife! #Midwives are health professionals with specific skills and training that enable them to perform a variety of essential roles. We cannot achieve a strong health workforce or #HealthForAll All without investing in midwives.

Midwives of the world congratulate the Duchess and Duke of Sussex on the birth of their son. Well done to you both and welcome Baby Sussex. Enjoy this special time in your lives.

Happy International Day of the Midwife! Midwives are the defenders of women's rights! We need more midwives in leadership positions! #IDM2019 #Midwives #twinning #twinningupnorth #knov #midwives4mothers #midwiferyacrossborders #NJF2019 #Harpa @De_KNOV @HarpaReykjavik @dagvogel
