This review looked at studies on training Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs) in low-resource countries. It found confusion around their role, titles, pay, and the skills they need. Training programs often lack clear standards and cultural relevance, and there is little evidence on their impact. The study highlights the need for community involvement and better-designed training to make TBAs more effective in supporting safe maternity care.
