“Yala Yala” means community.
Future Midwives:
In the near future, MHI hopes to launch, “Yala Yala” a Midwifery Education Program that was formed in direct response to a need for quality midwifery education that focused on meeting competencies for the midwifery model of care (as defined by ICM) and graduating passionate community-oriented midwives who are trained to manage the complexities of reproductive care in East Africa.
This 3-year program will involves didactic training as well as direct clinical mentorship at birth center partners around Uganda. Graduates are eligible for licensure in Uganda and prepared to be leaders in the field.
For more information and to apply to the Yala Yala Midwifery School please submit this inquiry form and a staff member will follow up with you shortly.
