Description

This episode is a bit different as it is a recording of my presentation at the [Sensitive Midwifery Symposium](http://sensitivemidwifery.co.za/sensitive-midwifery-symposium/) in JHB, South Africa.  Embracing technology has been hard for me but a couple of years ago I realised that I if I was to remain true to my calling to change birth practices and improve women's experience of birth then I had to change the way that I was disseminating information and literally get comfortable with apps, tweets, tablets, status updates and cloud computing. I had to find out more about this wireless world where technology knows no boundaries and everyone seems to be constantly logged-on and linked-up. I would love your feedback. Sound quality is not great but the message is clear that the internet is a double edged sword. I discuss the challenge faced by midwives and birth workers to use it effectively.
