Empowering Women, One Community at a Time

At Omugwo International, O Community Doulas, we believe that every woman deserves access to a strong support system during pregnancy, childbirth, and beyond. Our mission is to empower communities around the world by providing comprehensive training for Community Doulas—dedicated individuals who offer compassionate support and guidance to women throughout their maternal journey.

Our Community Doula training program is rooted in the principles of compassion, cultural sensitivity, and holistic care. We believe in equipping our trainees with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to serve as effective advocates for maternal health within their communities.

Comprehensive Curriculum:

Our training curriculum covers a wide range of topics, including childbirth education, breastfeeding support, emotional empowerment, and postpartum care. We provide both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to ensure that our Community Doulas are well-prepared to support women in all aspects of their maternal journey.

We recognize the importance of cultural competence in providing effective doula support. Our training program emphasizes the value of diversity and inclusion, equipping our trainees with the tools to navigate cultural differences sensitively and respectfully.

Community Engagement:

Building trust and rapport within the community is essential for effective doula support. We provide our trainees with strategies for establishing authentic connections with women and families, fostering a safe and supportive environment where they feel heard, valued, and empowered.

Advocacy and Education:

Our program empowers Community Doulas to become advocates for maternal health rights and education within their communities. We provide training on topics such as reproductive health rights, maternal mortality awareness, and access to healthcare services, empowering doulas to effect positive change and address systemic inequalities.
