It has been almost one month since Pepal concluded the first leadership training as part of the NJIA programme in Uttar Pradesh, India. Bringing together frontline Indian health workers, international leaders from F. Hoffman la Roche AG and Progressive Foundation India, the teams developed their leadership skills whilst co-creating six-month pilot ideas to improve cervical cancer prevention and treatment in Varanasi. This video below captures the excitement of the final day of the programme where teams presented their project ideas to key donor, NGO and local government stakeholders.
We have been so impressed with the dedication and motivation of the national leaders who have begun mass education and mobilisation for screening campaigns since they began the programme. We cannot wait to share their progress to improve women’s health with you over the coming weeks.
