Cambodian Midwives Project
Strengthening Cambodia's midwifery sector
Through the work of two AVI volunteers, a Midwifery
Preceptor Adviser and Midwifery Course Adviser, we are working
with Cambodia's University of Health Science's Technical
School for Medical Care (TSMC) to reduce the country's
maternal-infant mortality rates through improved safe motherhood
and birthing programs and services.
Working in partnership
With funding from AusAID, the project is supporting the
TSMC's vision to implement a new three-year course for Cambodia's
midwifery sector. This effort will improve the quality
of midwifery education in Cambodia and strengthen
maternal-infant care.

health in the Winter 2010 edition of AV Magazine.
