Understanding Perspectives of Midwifery Education from Black and Indigenous Community Stakeholders: “We're Working in a System That Was Not Intended for Us”

Findings from this study lend a valuable perspective in what stakeholders within midwifery education, mainly prospective students, current students, alumni, and community birth workers, have experienced in interacting within the education systems and what they hope to see changed in the future. By integrating historically excluded voices into curriculum design, institutions can create an education system that not only diversifies the workforce but also upholds the values of cultural competency, justice, and community-centered care.
