839 Awareness-raising Campaigns in Hard-to-reach Areas

Awareness raising campaigns are considered as one of the most significant and effective means to educate the public about the importance of health and nutrition. Consequently, our 294 Community Nutrition Volunteers (CNVs) have launched approximately 839 awareness-raising campaigns for people in the supported 52 health facilities in Fara Al-Udayn, Hazm Al-Udayn, Mudhiakhera and Al-Udayn districts, achieving a total number of 12,299  individuals disaggregated (3,190 men, 8,653 women, 125 boys, 331 girls). Having had such sessions, the community awareness got increased hoping to decrease the prevalence of acute malnutrition, communicable diseases, maternal mortality and others.
