International Midwives Day is an opportunity to recognise and appreciate the dedication, skill, and compassion of midwives who work tirelessly to ensure safe pregnancies, childbirths, and postnatal care for women and their babies. Originating from the International Confederation of Midwives (ICM), the International Day of the Midwife was first celebrated in 1991. Since then, it has grown into a global event marked by various activities, campaigns, and initiatives aimed at raising awareness about the importance of midwifery and advocating for the rights of midwives. The theme for each year's celebration often reflects current issues and challenges facing midwifery practice worldwide.

Midwives play a vital role in providing clinical care and promoting maternal and child health, empowering women, and advocating for their rights to quality healthcare services. They offer personalised, woman-centred care that respects women's choices, cultures, and beliefs, contributing to positive birth experiences and better health outcomes for mothers and babies. Midwives often work in challenging environments, including low-resource settings and areas affected by conflict or natural disasters, where their skills and expertise are invaluable.
