Dialogue through film: engaging midwives, TBAs, and mothers to improve maternal health outcomes in Ghana’s Volta region
The main question is if setting up an efficient dialogue as a result of a film screening in other communities is replicable. To set up a reliable study, test screenings of the film upfront will refine the approach, addressing language, group size, and ethical concerns. Using relatable storytelling and dialogue, the project fosters empathy, shared responsibility, and cultural sensitivity; laying the groundwork for long-term improvements in maternal health.
