Mearem Dawud is one of the students.<\/p>\n<p class=\"none\">Afar is a rural area with pastoralist (nomadic) communities. In these types of areas, well-trained midwives are essential for ensuring women have access to quality health care during pregnancy and delivery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"none\"><em>\u201cAfari girls are afraid of getting health services, because there is a lack of female health workers and because they are afraid of taking health services in the presence of males. Also, many girls have gone through Female Genital Mutilation [FGM, also known as Female Genital Cutting or FGC] and thus they become afraid of going for health services. So, I am hopeful that I can help girls by providing health services myself. I am also hopeful that I can help to change attitudes in my community on harmful traditional practices [such as FGM\/C] by facilitating dialogue in my community.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"none\">&#8212;
