| Description |
BOLD is a global initiative to help improve maternity care to be Mother-Friendly by using the arts to inspire communities to educate themselves, speak their truth and take action on maternity care issues. This grass-roots event raises awareness and provides a fundraising opportunity for organizations and individuals to support mother-initiated dialogue and solutions to todays maternity care problems.
After each performance of Birth there will be a BOLD Talkback, giving audience members the opportunity to discuss the play, their reactions, and their feelings about birth with local panelists from the community.
The 2008 Birth performances in Philadelphia are being produced by Birth Works International, a non-profit organization offering childbirth educator and doula certification programs located in Medford, New Jersey. Proceeds will help Birth Works provide training scholarships for educators and doulas, and educational events for the public and community reaching more women, empowering them through education while strengthening their families in an effort to achieve positive change in our maternity care system. |
