Daily work of a guild of midwives in Colombia's Pacific Coast. I enter the midwives’ association office in a humble neighborhood of Buenaventura, a city on Colombia’s Pacific coast. These midwives have a deep knowledge of natural medicine that forms part of their Afro-Colombian cultural tradition, they are immaterial heritage of Colombia.
