International Confederation of Midwives

April 16, 2026 By Jo Anne Lindberg

ICM has been the global voice of midwives and midwives’ associations for more than 100 years. We work to advance midwifery and support strong midwives’ associations worldwide, so midwives can provide high-quality care in every setting.

ICM has been the global voice of midwives and midwives’ associations for more than 100 years. We work to advance midwifery and support strong midwives’ associations worldwide, so midwives can provide high-quality care in every setting.

We uphold the right of women and gender diverse people to access quality care from autonomous midwives, as set out in standards defined by ICM, including the Definition and Scope of Practice of a Midwife.

BirthLink has the same goals. Every pregnant mother should have access to midwifery services who support mother baby lead birth with autonomous midwives.
