Haiti - Canada : $15M support for Haitian Midwives 22/02/2018 09:16:32 Canada is proud to have contributed to the rebuilding, curriculum renewal, equipment and operationalization of the INSFSF following its destruction by the 2010 earthquake, said Minister Bibeau. Taking advantage of the event, she announced a new $15 million support from Canada to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) to strengthen the capacity of the Haitian government to train, recruit, deploy and maintain midwives in the underserved communes of Haiti, despite the improvement of many health indicators in Haiti, indicates that just over half of deliveries are still carried out without any medical assistance and that Haiti is faced with a shortage of health personnel. This investment will also allow to improve access to sexual and reproductive health services for Haitian women. The initiative will be implemented in collaboration with the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières and the Canadian Association of Midwives.
