Why all midwives are fundamentally feminists

Professor Hannah Dahlen is a midwife, lecturer, international researcher and speaker.

She believes that ‘the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world’.

From her early life in Yemen, witnessing and aiding women in labour, to training in London (where her mum was one of the midwives later depicted in the BBC series Call the Midwife), Hannah explains how her passion for midwifery and women’s rights in birthing came to be.
