The number of midwives graduating in Germany has shown a steady increase from 2024 to 2028 with projected figures from 654 graduates in 2024 to 663 in 2028. Given the forecasted data, there is a minimal yet consistent year-on-year growth of approximately 0.61% during this period. Unfortunately, a comparison with 2023 is not possible as the data for this year is absent, and thus, the context for the commencement of the trend is unclear.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential policy changes to encourage midwifery education.
Technological advancements that may impact training and practice.
Demographic shifts influencing healthcare demands and requisite workforce.
Challenges in workforce retention affecting the number of graduates transitioning into professional practice.
