Project Report | Jan 23, 2023
Prevent, detect and respond to health threats

By Jean Damascene Uwizeyimana | Project Leader

Dear Patrons, 

Global health threats posed by infectious diseases: Due to the high human mobility in the region, the communities at the borders and along the transport corridors are continuously exposed to communicable diseases, which affect countries negatively and the entire region. We strive to combat the health crisis by generating and sharing knowledge, and practical expertise and producing data on infectious diseases in order to develop new tools and interventions. Community health workers are the key players in the community,  especially in preventing and responding to global health threats posed by infectious diseases. 

 

During our pieces of training and workshops, we cover different topics that are common in health care and public health practice settings, infection control includes various measures that prevent and contain the spread of infectious disease.

Thes topics are the following:

 

  • Hand Washing
  • Infection control standards, contact, droplet, and airborne precautions
  • Procedures for decontamination of persons and disinfection of equipment and the environment
  • Quarantine of contacts (if necessary)
  • Prophylaxis of exposed individuals
  • Control of the vectors of infection

This year, our organization has planned to train, 5000 community health workers, and to do this we need 8000 USD, 

 

to achieve this, we request you to donate generously to our project so that we can keep working and achieve our goals. You could also consider doing a monthly recurring donation for our project, which will help us with our ongoing work.  


We thank you for everything that you have done for our project, and we look forward to your continued support.

Thanks & Best Regards.

Jean Damascene Uwizeyimana
