Ambiance as a Key for a Better Birth Experience.

This research provides insights into childbirth as a sensitive experience, from the perspective of its user, "woman in labour," as well as from the perspective of the event itself, "the childbirth," and the birth space, with its spatial and ambiantal configurations. By adopting an in-situ approach, we conducted a spatial and ambiantal characterization of two childbirth different contexts; Tunis and Grenoble. Along this work, we used various methods such as ethnographic observation and semistructured interviews with mothers and midwives, when following visits to the birth spaces in Grenoble.
