I am aware that in many areas of the world, local healers and traditional birth attendants do not provide the best medical practices for women giving birth but instead, teach traditional and cultural birthing practices. Will your project include training or education for local healers and birth attendants to ensure that women in the community receive the most accurate and safest birthing techniques?

Could you respond with the name of specific birth or motherhood songs you have thought of that might be used in this project?

Thanks, I look forward to hearing more details about your project soon.

This is a really interesting idea. I'm curious to better understand the physical steps you would take to launch this initiative. Would you want to assemble a team of people that would visit communities to encourage them to create songs? Or would you find individuals from the communities and train them in organizing for maternal health? How do you plan to fund the initiative?

I think understanding these important steps would be extremely helpful in visualizing the actual "how to" of the project.

Thank you!!
