Ethiopiaid's partner, The Atsede Clinic, lies in Gurage in the rural south-west of Ethiopia. Led by midwife Atsede, a local midwife with over a decade of experience who is dedicated to the women of Cheha woreda. Atsede is a much-loved and well-respected member of the community, with women walking for hours to see her. After working for 2 years in the local health centre, Atsede partnered with Indie, a classically trained anthropologist and a clinically trained midwife from the UK. Graduating from the University of Cambridge, she spent time working in Kyrgyzstan with UNICEF’s Maternal and Neonatal Health Team before returning to the UK to complete her midwifery training. Together, sharing experience and expertise, they work to run their own woman focused, community based clinic where women are given consistency, home visits, compassion and the freedom of choice.
