Subject: [ozmidwifery] bumper
stickers
Seeking in-put from MC branches around Oz, consumer organisations, ASIM,
etc...
ACMI is looking at printing bumper stickers & there's interest from
Midwives in Private Practice (MIPP in Victoria) & possibly MC (Vic) going
in together to do
a massive print to reduce costs, have heaps of the same
stickers floating around on cars all around Oz, etc.
Janine Clark (ACMI national student rep) & I are looking at
organising this... if anyone has any suggestions please let us
know!
One question to think about/dicuss is if all of these
organisations (ACMI, MC, MIPP, ASIM, etc) are keen to get stickers
together, each sticker is not going to be able to have each organisation's
name on it. So I think each organisation needs to discuss why they want
the stickers... to promote the organisation or to promote midwifery/birth
reform (or other goal I haven't thought
of!).
If the goal is to promote midwifery/birth reform, maybe they could all
have the MC website on them since that's the umbrella organisation. If
the goal is to promote the specific organisation, then I'm not really sure how
this could be done.
Does anyone have any
thoughts/feelings/ideas?
I've collated a list of suggested slogans
below, but before slogans are debated, it's probably more important to discuss
goals & priorities.
