Resumen:
Midwifery is a distinct health profession dedicated to promoting and safeguarding the well-being of people during pregnancy, childbirth, the postnatal period, and newborn care (World Health Organization [WHO], 2024). The International Confederation of Midwives (ICM) defines a midwife as:
“a person who has successfully completed a midwifery education programme based on the ICM Essential Competencies for Midwifery Practice and the ICM Global Standards for Midwifery Education, recognized in the country where it is located; who has acquired the qualifications required to be legally registered and/or licensed to practice midwifery and use the title ‘midwife’; and who demonstrates competency within the scope of midwifery practice” (ICM, 2024).
