New podcast episode (in Swedish): First midwifery program on university level in the Congo

16 January, 2023 Leave a Comment

PODCAST. Throughout her life, Marie Berg, midwife and professor of nursing at the University of Gothenburg, has been deeply committed to women in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Hear her story in Akademiliv’s podcast.

Together with other colleagues, Marie Berg is now establishing the first midwifery training at university level at the Université Evangélique en Afrique, in Bukavu. The fact that Marie and her husband Urban have had the Congo as their second homeland for the past 40 years is a prerequisite for her work with education.

Interview is conducted in Swedish by Elin Lindström and Lovisa Aijmer.
