Becoming a Member of ICM

Since its founding, ICM has grown from a small group of Midwives Associations in western Europe to a major confederation of over 95 autonomous Midwives Associations from countries in every part of the globe.

Criteria for membership demand that each association is headed by midwives who determine their own governance and activities, they are committed to the mission, vision and aims of ICM.

Applications for membership are welcome and enquiries should be addressed to: membership@internationalmidwives.org.
