Over dit evenement
In this powerful three-day course, Vanessa Brooks, founder of DAALUZ Oasis and long-time birth activist, takes you on a deep dive into the intersection of law, ethics, and birth activism. With over 35 years of experience as an independent midwife, Vanessa will share her journey as a midwife and birth activist, including her own persecution and the deep healing needed for birth workers facing the “witch wound.”
What You Will Learn:
• Vanessa’s story: Hear about Vanessa’s personal experience with persecution and how it has shaped her activism.
• The witch wound: Explore the historical trauma that many birth workers carry and how to heal it.
• Law and ethics: Gain a deep understanding of the current legal landscape surrounding birth and how it affects birth workers and families.
• Autonomy in birth: Learn about the importance of autonomy for both birth workers and couples as they navigate the birth journey together.
• Day 3 – Fun and forward-thinking: We will look at how we, as birth workers, can be integral in changing the birth culture for the next generation.
This course is for midwives, doulas, birth activists, and anyone passionate about changing the birth culture. It is a chance to heal, to learn, and to become part of the movement that will transform birth practices.
