Honoring Indigenous Midwives Worldwide | Jamaica News
Description
On August 9th, the world celebrates International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples — a day honoring their resilience, diversity, and vital contributions despite centuries of marginalization. Though making up less than 6% of the global population, Indigenous Peoples face disproportionate poverty and systemic discrimination while stewarding vast ecosystems. This year’s theme, “Honouring Indigenous Midwives: Safeguarding Life and Well-Being,” spotlights these cultural guardians as essential keepers of holistic, community-rooted healing traditions — urging global recognition and integration of their wisdom for future health and dignity.
