The Jeeva
Project is a research initiative of the "Jeeva Collective", a
network of persons concerned with strengthening dais and the indigenous
midwifery system in India and to see them included appropriately in the public
health
services system. The initiative formally began at a meeting in Bhopal in March
2007.[1]
Six
persons known as the "Jeeva Shepherds" guide the Project: Imrana
Qadeer, Janet Chawla, Mira Sadgopal, Lindsay Barnes, Leila Caleb Varkey and
Anuradha Singh. Among them, they combine
expertise in public health, medicine, nurse-midwifery, Ayurveda, ‘natural
childbirth’ teaching and health care provision to women and children.
The
project is officially administered by the Centre
for Women's Development Studies (CWDS), New Delhi, headed by its Director,
Mary John. Among the Shepherds, Mira Sadgopal is the Principal Investigator.
Sandhya Gautam now heads the staff as Project Coordinator.
