Dear Andrea I spoke with Jan Robinson yesterday and she tells me she will see you on Monday. I have asked her to pass on my thoughts about the tenacity and size of this conference. I thought we could move it around to other States? Jan suggested Canberra while Parliament is in session and her email today contained another good idea for video conferencing. Maybe Barb Vernon and Justine can give us some advice on this. My thoughts on some of the groups/companies/people we want to attract are:
Conference Organiser Birth International Conference Convenor Maternity Coalition State and National hosts Australian Government Women Midwives state, national and international regardless of place of practice Maternity Coalition and all the umbrella organisations of maternity coalition with an even bigger thrust with NMAP Bachelor of midwifery coalition Any other supportive organisations such as Women's Electoral Lobby, Women in Business, Women's Health Politicians state, federal and international (especially the NZ Prime Minister) Insurance organisations both health and indemnity Universities educators and students Professional groups, ICM, ACMI, NZCOM - AMA and NASOG Regional and State hospital administrators Union representatives Media any others you can think of Robyn Thompson Melbourne Midwifery Specialist Services Pty Ltd (abn 34 007 423 994) Independent Midwifery Practice Midwife Practitioner * Homebirth * Lactation * Maternal & Child Health www.melbmidwifery.com.au [EMAIL PROTECTED]
