Co-designing postpartum contraceptive services with and for immigrant women in Sweden: lessons learned from the IMPROVE-it project
The co-design process resulted in the successful and participative development of innovative tools and activities to improve contraceptive counseling services. This approach is original because it involves both immigrant women, often left behind, and midwives delivering the services. Whilst this interplay allowed for careful refinement of services and tools by using an iterative process, it also facilitated reflective midwifery practice.
