Practice-based events

As part of our project, we held three practice-based events on the subject of translating informed consent in maternity services. These events added to the impact of our research project, by bringing our findings directly to service providers.

The first of these events was a workshop with student midwives at Edinburgh Napier University, on Wednesday 16 November 2022. In this workshop, we explored the needs and experiences of (student) midwives when providing care for women and birthing people who require translation services. The key focus remained on informed consent.

The second event was a talk about our research findings on the Maternity and Midwifery Hour on Wednesday 16 November 2022 at 7pm (BST).
