2024 Symposium Recordings

Empowered Through Knowledge

Get lifetime access to the recordings from our Symposium event

The theme for 2024 was: Empowered through Knowledge. It is now more important than ever that Midwives take their full place and bring back the beautiful art of true midwifery. We are empowered through knowledge, which leads to expertise, respect, and independence. Be(come) the midwives of the future!

The Sensitive Midwifery Symposium is one of Africa’s largest and most prestigious midwifery and perinatal conferences, initiated in 1996 by the Sister Lilian Centre, which specialises in midwifery, pregnancy, birth and parenting education and advice.

The Sensitive Midwifery Symposium aims to make a positive difference to midwifery, maternity, and child care while celebrating the professions involved. It offers you a unique and innovative blend of expertise updates, advocacy of sensitive care, challenging of harmful practices, exposure to relevant complementary health fields, encouragement of professional morale, and professional inspiration.
