The vision of Midwifery 2020 stated that “Midwives will deliver innovative, evidence based, cost effective, quality care across integrated health and social care contexts. They will have the capacity to initiate and respond to change” (Midwifery 2020). Midwifery services for our women must be sustainable over time and the resources required to deliver those services are not infinite. Incorporating a culture of awareness surrounding sustainability in the teaching of our student midwives will have a positive long term impact on future generations.
