The Virtual International Day of the Midwife (VIDM) is an annual online FREE conference that celebrates the International Day of the Midwife. It is held on or around May 5th each year to be as close to the International Day of the Midwife as possible.
VIDM runs for 24 hours and covers a wide range of subjects with speakers from around the globe. It uses online conferencing software to bring together people who have an interest in childbirth matters – midwives, students and consumers — all completely free.
VIDM 26 is a wrap! A very successful conference, 44 presentations, almost 1000 delegates. Over the next few weeks, the recordings will be edited and uploaded to YouTube. Meantime….
