It’s World Health Worker Week! Today we hear from Mariette, Community Health Worker: “As CHWs, we are really community educators. Being closest to the communities we serve and often the first ones informed of a sick patient, we must not hesitate to advise the community in order to gain their trust and respect as we guide them to care. We transmit key health information and guidance to the community to prevent the disease. I have been a CHW for 25 years, and I love this profession because I am able to put the knowledge I have toward the benefit of the family and the community; in return, the work increases my knowledge every day.” Pivot invests in #SafeSupportedHealthWorkers because we know that they are the key to achieving global health targets, ensuring health system resilience, and providing lifesaving services around the world. Follow along this #WHWWeek as we amplify the voices of those whose daily work is vital to the wellbeing of communities across Madagascar.
