NMAP
Dear All
Mar 4 is International Women's Day and an
opportunity to put NMAP before the women who are involved in these
activities!
Usually these are
the W libbers who are politically involved and have established networks which
could be re-energised by the research etc behind NMAP.
So time to hit the keyboard find the links, make
phone calls and see where we can disseminate NMAP info at state and local
levels.
Remember also NMAP is Democrat and Greens policy
so there is another layer to work with !
Personally I feel we could use these positively
motivated and activate people's linkages to organise local community
meetings to discuss current maternity services and their outcomes compared to
NMAP and ask the local community if they would like access to Community
Midwifery, to form a group as in the Illawarra
(NSW).
For example
What do you
reckon?
