The Midwives Association of Kenya (MAK) celebrated the culmination of Midwives Week in Kisumu with the official launch of their Kisumu branch. The event, held at Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital (JOOTRH), highlighted the association's commitment to both quality midwifery care and environmental sustainability. Kisumu midwives shared their experiences in mitigating climate change within their facilities, drawing inspiration from the Aga Khan Hospital Kisumu’s practice of gifting mothers with fruit tree seedlings upon childbirth. The launch ceremony saw midwives being challenged to plant at least 30 fruit trees at their respective institutions. JOOTRH, the event's host, benefitted from this initiative as participants planted 30 trees to mark the association's establishment.
