Facilitation was live. Volunteers (11) were trained, empowered to monitor community activities, and will continue to train and sanitise the community. Participants (39) were successfully trained and action
plan was developed. On 12 November 2020, a meeting was held with chiefs and parents, and on 16 November, the community was trained on handwashing devices using local materials. DRAO and health personnel will conduct a follow-up on 30 November, 2020. The training was an effective tool for building partnerships among the chiefs, the community, the Development Committee, and DRAO.
There was greater appreciation from the chiefs and the community
DRAO wishes to express gratitude to The Pollination Project for funding the training and for the partnership established. The community also thanks the project for the first-of-its-kind training in TA Mwirang’ombe and looks forward to more training in the near future.
