The Norwegian Midwife Association was established in 1908 as a professional association for midwives. The association aims to promote professional development through various courses and conferences. It also engages in hearings and provides input into health policy, with a focus on research and current issues in maternity and maternity care.
The association supports midwives in challenges related to working conditions and works to increase awareness of body pressure and health. In addition, they organize Midwives' Days, which facilitate professional networking among members. The Norwegian Midwife Association also has an active role in media debates about midwives' work and related topics.
