Description of the Project
Ethiopian Midwives Association (EMwA) in collaboration with Health[e]Foundation, Addis Ababa University, Debre-birhan and Gonder university and Minilik HSC implementing the project on Midwife students as advocates for SRHR in the university to empower women to enter and stay in the educational system using blended e-learning and outreach to adolescents.
The project will strengthen the university’s SRHR curriculum development and EMwA’s position to support the educational system to deliver competent, gender-sensitive and entrepreneurial midwifery graduates. Health[e]Foundation/Global Health department will increase their global impact and use this project as showcase to be implemented in other countries. Based on previous activities, the ownership is safeguarded by the existing collaboration between the partner institutions. EMwA has a lead role in the implementation of project activities. The embedding of digital tools in the university curriculum will shift ownership to Ethiopian collaborators even more.
