2024 DONA Summit

On-Demand Registration is Now Open

DONA International values presenting quality and impactful continuing education to birth and postpartum professionals from around the world.  With that in mind, DONA Leadership plans virtual and in-person events.  The annual conference for 2024 was held live, online on October 28-29th, 2024.  While the live event offered an opportunity for interaction of participants, speakers, and leaders, the on-demand viewing of all sessions is available to those already registered and those who would like to register during the on-demand portion of the conference. 

The conference offers keynote speakers, concurrent speakers, a member meeting, and a virtual exhibit hall.

We invite DONA members and doulas from all backgrounds to join us as we connect in a way that helps make this work sustainable, through education and meaningful relationships!

Learning and Continuing Education Credits

The DONA International Summit is one way we continue to provide our members with the highest standard of evidence-based training and education. The core conference qualifies as formal continuing education for doula recertification and trainer reapproval with DONA International and most other childbirth certification organizations. The Summit focused on key areas for professional growth offering continuing education hours for recertification with DONA International and other organizations that accept DONA contact hours.   Participants will get credit for sessions in which they attend and complete the post-test questions afterward via DONA Elevate.

It is the registrant’s responsibility to ascertain whether this offering meets the requirements of other certifying organizations.

About Our Speakers

The DONA International Speaker Selection Committee selected an excellent speaker line-up.  The committee incorporated keynote addresses alongside working sessions in which doulas can develop leadership skills with tangible take-homes that can be incorporated at the local, national, or international levels.

The topics are relevant to birth and postpartum doula work.  Sessions should enhance your doula skills, as well as practical business sessions, and other relevant professional development topics.
