We are continuing the activities in the scope of the project “Advancing nursing and midwifery education and establishing the system for the recognition of professional qualifications in the Republic of North Macedonia (2024–2025),” which aims to support and advance nursing and midwifery education in North Macedonia.

The project, launched in June 2024, continues with a fact-finding visit to Skopje, where from 20 to 22 October, several workshops, presentations by Slovenian experts and group interviews with Macedonian experts will be held. The visit will take a cross-pillar approach, focusing on regulation, legislation and education, and will unite representatives of faculties and schools where nursing and midwifery studies are conducted, WHO Office in Skopje, Institute for Public Health, representatives from the Ministry of Higher Education covering legislation related to higher education, and representatives from the Ministry of Health, as well as representatives from the government recognized the national nursing and midwifery organizations.

Project is implemented with the support of the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia through the International Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Aid Programme and the Ministry of Health of the Republic of North Macedonia.
