UNFPA has been working closely with the Ministry of Health and other partners in advancing midwifery education since 2009. UNFPA Country Representative to Nepal, Giulia Vallese stated that,"Midwives are key to reducing maternal mortality. Recognizing their importance in reducing maternal and neonatal mortality as well as morbidity contributes to making every pregnancy wanted and every birth safe".
The official start of the Bachelor in Midwifery program in Nepal is an important milestone towards improving maternal and newborn health in the country, said the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).
