Midwives from the Middle East, Africa and Asia attended the conference. Dr. Hernandez-Reif found them to the very engaged in learning, knowledgeable and ultramodern especially in terms of social media. A highlight of the conference was meeting the conference keynote speaker, Princess Muna Al Hussein of Jordan.
One of Dr. Hernandez-Reif's take-aways from the experience was – “how much alike women are all over the world in terms of values related to children and parenting.”
