The Role Of Community Health Workers During The Covid-19 Pandemic
The Situation of Community Health Workers in Africa
This project aims to ensure we can increase our knowledge of the situation in the subcontinent related to CHWs and can elaborate a strategy in order to move forward. We also aim to disseminate information in the region on the situation of CHWs.
CHWs are those who will benefit form this project. They are predominantly women workers, who work under poor working conditions, and often for free as ’volunteers’.
