Indonesia: The Midwifery Collegium and the National Health Council (KKI) have introduced a framework to develop a new curriculum for midwifery education. This initiative aims to enhance the quality of midwifery training and promote the health of mothers and infants. By improving midwifery education, the goal is to strategically lower maternal and infant mortality rates, as it will provide midwives with the essential skills needed for this important work. Midwives are expected to lead the transformation of primary healthcare, especially in addressing the high rates of maternal and infant deaths that persist in Indonesia.
- Lord, we pray for the Midwifery Collegium and the National Health Council as they develop this new curriculum for midwifery education. Grant them wisdom and discernment to create a program that effectively equips midwives with the skills they need to care for mothers and infants. May their efforts lead to significant improvements in maternal and infant health (The Holy Bible, Proverbs 21:1).
- Lord, we pray for the mothers and infants in Indonesia who are currently facing high rates of mortality. We ask that through the improved training of midwives, you would bring transformation and healing to families and communities across the nation. Let your love and care shine through the work of these dedicated professionals (The Holy Bible, Matthew 10:8).
