Our mission is to improve and promote women and newborns’ health and strengthen the midwifery profession through superior advocacy, research, and education.

Maternity Today is a non-profit charitable organization dedicated to sharing evidence and resources with communities, health care workers and midwives in developing countries. Our office is located in Ottawa, Canada but receives support from global health experts and midwives worldwide. Our key priority areas include improving the midwifery profession and institutional delivery, adolescent health, community mobilization and advocacy.

We empower passionate health professionals to advocate and improve policies that enhance the quality of maternal and child health care in developing countries. We share original articles from academic journals, updates and news for maternal and child health care program workers.
