Researchers: A/Pr Angela Dawson (Principal investigator)

Brief description Although we know how to manage the complications and care for pregnant women affected by Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) health outcomes for these women remain poorer than other women in Australia. Women with FGM are dissatisfied with their maternity care and health professionals lack skills. This project aims to improve maternity care for FGM affected women by implementing women centred guidelines to assist communication between women and health professionals and ensure shared decision making.
