IDN and IDM Celebration 2026
12th May 2026 marked a remarkable and successful joint celebration of the International Day of the Midwife (IDM) and International Nurses Day (IND) 2026, bringing together nurses, midwives, health professionals, students, partners, and leaders from across South Sudan in a powerful moment of unity, service, and professional recognition.
The celebration was proudly steered by the South Sudan Nurses and Midwives Association—Jubek Chapter, with participation and support from all the 19 SSNAMA State Chapters across the country, demonstrating the strength, dedication, and solidarity of the nursing and midwifery profession in South Sudan.
The event was honored by the presence of the president of the South Sudan Nurses and Midwives Association; senior nurses and midwives; student nurses and midwives who delivered inspiring presentations; and distinguished representatives from Amref Health Africa, the United Nations Population Fund, the Government of South Sudan, the State Ministry of Health, and the Director General for Nurses and Midwives, Rev. Jennet.
We extend our heartfelt appreciation to every individual, institution, partner, and chapter that contributed to making this celebration meaningful and impactful. Your commitment continues to strengthen healthcare delivery and inspire the next generation of nurses and midwives across South Sudan.
We also sincerely acknowledge and appreciate the generous support of the Canadian Association of Midwives (CAM) for their continued partnership and contribution toward strengthening nursing and midwifery services in South Sudan. Your support remains instrumental in empowering healthcare professionals and improving maternal and community health across the nation.
Together, we celebrate the compassion, resilience, professionalism, and lifesaving role of nurses and midwives in building healthier communities and a stronger nation.
