Growing Midwifery Leadership Within Our Own Mob

Abstract

The Rhodanthe Lipsett Indigenous Midwifery Charitable Fund (RLIMCF) has a significant impact on the current health of First Nations mothers and babies, supporting First Nations midwives to develop and sustain our systems of health care such as Birthing on Country. Made for us, by us. RLIMCF’s scholarship contribution to First Nations student midwives and midwives reaches mothers, babies and families. Our midwives give support to health professionals, community organisations, hospitals and birthing centres. They contribute to ongoing health and wellbeing for all generations to come.
