The workshop entails discussions about teaching Family Planning Counseling in midwifery schools in Lebanon. Midwives, teachers, and instructors from different universities came to the meeting. They talked about what's happening now, what's difficult, what's missing, and how to make it better. They also talked about how a group called the Lebanese Order of Midwives can help. Twenty people from USJ, UL, and Sainte Famille University came to the meeting.
Mona Mneimneh, who teaches students to be midwives at Lebanese University, Campus of Hadath said, "We really needed this meeting. It was like a place where universities could talk about how they are doing with teaching family planning counseling. Everyone wants to make it the same and better in all midwifery schools." 📚👩⚕️
