Ngangk Waangening

Description

This is a unique book of Noongar and Yamatji mothers’ accounts of their birthing experiences, highlighting the importance of developing respectful, thoughtful, woman-centred care for Aboriginal women and their families.

In Ngangk Waangening, a group of Elder and Senior women generously share their birthing stories as a legacy for their families and communities, and as an educational tool for midwives and young mothers who may not have access to traditional support systems while giving birth to their babies.
