Gracias a todos los miembros de la Junta de la ICM por proporcionarme esta oportunidad, y mis mas sinceras felicitaciones por el trabajo que estan realizando. " (On 23 June I had the opportunity to attend the annual ICM Council meeting, as delegate of the Asociacion Espanola de Matronas. It was a short but interesting meeting, with the aim of adopting the 2006 accounts, which were agreed by the majority of members. All members of the Board welcomed the delegates present, before finalising the vote. To my surprise, after the vote, the Director and President of ICM kindly invited me to stay for the following part of the Board meeting, which Council delegates do not normally attend. I willingly accepted the invitation to be present at this session where midwives from all regions of the world were reaching consensus on major decisions. I observed that, paradoxically, the issues at global level are in a way similar to those we encounter locally, in spite of the cultural and economic differences among the regions. This helped me to understand the need for the existence of a body like the ICM, effecting good exchange of information and aiming to deal with all the issues of the midwifery midwifery (mĭd`wī'fərē), art of assisting at childbirth. The term midwife for centuries referred to a woman who was an overseer during the process of delivery. In ancient Greece and Rome, these women had some formal training. profession, which--like the women of the world has an intrinsic unity. I saw how it works day by day to raise awareness of the needs of women and families, and of midwives. Thank you to the members of the Board for extending me this opportunity to me, and my sincere congratulations for the work which they achieve.) |
