Journal of the Australian College of Midwives (ACM) Women and Birth is the official journal of the Australian College of Midwives. It is a midwifery journal that publishes on all matters relating to pregnancy, birth, and the first six weeks post-partum. All papers must draw from, and contribute to, the relevant contemporary research, policy and/or theoretical literature. We focus on primary research papers, systematic reviews and research-informed and critiqued discussion papers. We are particularly interested in the impact to the midwifes and/or midwifery on these topic areas.Our Editorial Board is multi-national and we welcome papers from all over the world. All papers should reflect our global perspective and reach. Articles are double blind peer-reviewed by experts in the field of the submitted work.Our woman-centred focus is inclusive of the partner, wider family, fetus and newborn, and covers both healthy and complex pregnancies and births. We recognise that individuals have diverse gender identities. Terms such as pregnant person, childbearing people and parent can be used to avoid gendering birth, and those who give birth, as feminine. However, because women are also marginalised and oppressed in most places around the world, we support use of the terms woman, mother or maternity. When we use these words, it is not meant to exclude those who give birth and do not identify as women. The journal seeks papers that take a woman-centred focus on midwifery practice, research, theory, education, management and leadership, maternity service provision, maternal and newborn health, respectful maternity care, breastfeeding, primary health care and relevant aspects of psychology, sociology, human rights and health economics. We welcome papers from all professional disciplines that are relevant to midwifery practice and the scope of the journal.Women and Birth cannot consider papers that have a primary focus on gynaecological surgery, gynaecological oncology, surgical techniques (e.g. Caesarean section surgical approaches), pharmacological studies unless directly relevant to midwifery practice, infertility research or detailed IVF techniques or success rates. We also do not consider case reports or papers that are about the development of survey tools through validation studies. Women and Birth does not consider animal studies.Our key readers are midwives, maternity care and neonatal nurses, maternity service managers, providers and users, obstetricians, neonatologists, health sociologists and economists, psychologists with an interest in maternal and infant research and policy makers and researchers from all these areas.The journal is indexed in PubMed, MEDLINE, Thomson Reuters, Scopus and CINAHL.The journal is available online to ACM members and is available by separate subscription.Open Access - the journal offers authors the option of making their article freely available to all via the ScienceDirect platform. Authors can only make this choice after receiving notification that their article has been accepted for publication.ClinicalKey Nursing Visit our nursing resource, ClincalKey NursingTo purchase books on Midwifery or to browse our comprehensive range of Midwifery titles, please visit us at www.elsevierhealth.com.au/midwifery.
