Sayanapress Training for Community Health Workers
Supported by the UNFPA, during the second quarter of the year, AFGA conducted a series of training programs on Sayanapress for the Community Health Workers (CHWs) in Kunar, Kunduz and Khost Provinces whereby a total of 109 CHWs were trained.
The main purpose of the training was to train the CHWs to understand better the overall health conditions of the mothers in the country, the prevention of mothers and newborns death, and the importance of distance between the deliveries.
In the first two batches of training that was conducted in Khost province, 39 CHWs participated, and in the second two batches of training, conducted in Kunduz province, 32 CHWs participated. In the third training, 38 CHWs of Kunar province received the training.
The trainees admired the AFGA’s efforts for conducting this training and requested AFGA to continue organizing such training for other CHWs too.
AFGA organizes capacity-building training programs for CHWs and Community Outreach Midwives (COMs) to enable them to provide high-quality health services to communities all over the country.
