Community Health Workers

In the midst of displacements caused by natural disasters, conflicts, or socio-economic factors, the importance of immediate and contextual health care can't be overstated. Community Health Workers (CHWs) play a pivotal role in delivering primary health care, particularly in resource-poor settings or displaced communities. This training and deployment program focuses on equipping individuals from displaced communities to serve their own population, ensuring culturally sensitive, context-specific, and immediate health care assistance.


  • Capacity Building

    Train individuals from displaced communities to become CHWs, imparting necessary skills and knowledge to address common health issues in their community.

  • Contextual Health Care

    Equip CHWs with the ability to deliver context-specific health care that takes into account the unique challenges, risks, and resources available in displaced settings.

  • Cultural Sensitivity

    Care that respects and understands the traditions and values of the community.

  • Sustainability

    Establish a model where these CHWs can train others, ensuring a growing network of health workers who can respond to the community's needs.

  • Integration

    Work closely with local health facilities and organizations to ensure a seamless integration of CHWs into the broader health system.
