Midwifery in Iceland by Jon Baines Tours Ltd

Midwifery in Iceland is organized by Jon Baines Tours Ltd and will be held from May 04 - 13, 2019 at Reykjavik, Reykjavikurborg, Iceland.

About the Tour :
Iceland is a magical island humming with energy and natural phenomena that turns everyday experiences - a walk, a drive, a dip in a pool - into something that will take your breath away. Its beauty comes from a vast volcanic landscape where mighty forces shape the earth: geysers and glooping mudflats, rumbling volcanoes swathed in ice and glaciers grinding their way through mountains. Its rich cultural life encompasses a literary legacy that stretches from medieval sagas to contemporary thrillers by way of Nobel Prize winners, as well as life, music, and Nordic style.

As well as its wonderful culture and landscapes, the local people are welcoming and creative and have a progressive, egalitarian sensibility. Here, midwives are known as Ljósmóðir or 'Mothers of Light', which reflects the status that the midwives have always held in Iceland, where formal midwifery training first began back in 1761.

Experience the beauty and culture of this remarkable island while gaining insight into its midwifery and maternal services through a wide-ranging professional programme, led by Professor Nicky Leap.
