Sponsor's own description
This PhD project aims to explore how midwives can take the lead in implementing and enhancing evidence-based quality improvement (QI) components within maternal and newborn health care in Uganda. The MIDWIZE conceptual framework will be used to understand the complexity of sustainably enhancing maternal and newborn healthcare. The project will start with a multisectoral co-creation process and subsequently involve online and onsite capacity building for midwives on selected evidence-based practices and implementation strategies. The project applies a mixed-method research approach, including focus groups discussions, interviews, quantitative data on health outcomes and a tool evaluating midwives' sense of power and autonomy.
