birth activism



More and more people are realising that work needs to be done to inform women of their options in pregnancy and birth,  to effect change on a political level, and to ensure that women have choices about the place where they give birth and the people they have around while doing so.

This page collates some of the information and  suggestions which are available to people who have  the energy and desire to put work into these issues.
