Saving Lives: Australian Cameroonian Collaboration

The With Women Project, Cameroon, focuses on training midwives in Southwest Cameroon to combat high maternal and infant mortality rates. The project provides essential training, medical equipment and simulation tools. It addresses issues such as skill shortages, limited resources and the effects of ongoing socio-political instability. In 2024, Australian midwives led training workshops for birth workers. By fostering strong relationships with local clinicians, the project continues to enhance maternal care through ongoing mentorship and hands-on training.
