Training Programmes for Community Health Workers
The Foundation for Mother and Child Health has instituted a very successful
training programme for community health workers. The programme aims to
train key health workers working in local projects in topics such as nutrition,
 health
and hygiene, immunization and anthropometrics – specifically how
to measure and weigh children accurately. The programme initially concentrated
on the neighbourhoods of Jakarta surrounding the Foundation, but is now
expanding to other areas in Jakarta.
Feedback from these training courses has been very good and further
courses in communication skills have been arranged each year, thereby
helping Community Health Workers transfer their knowledge to mothers in
the local villages (kampungs).
The training will be offered three times a year beginning in February,
June, and September as refresher training and for other target audiences
such as local midwives and traditional birth attendants.
