Maria visited Nawandyo A to carry out an evaluation on all the topics covered, talk about the general hygiene of the community from the time Community health education program started up to date. The meeting started by an opening prayer led by Maria, the chairperson Kibo mr Muhamed gave his remarks then Maria was invited to speak to the community members. Maria welcomed members, introduced the topic as evaluation on topics covered. The staff asked members to share the different topics covered. In an interactive discussion, members mentioned almost every topic, reminding each other on what was advised by the health educator. As members were mentioning the topics, Maria could ask questions in line with the topic to assess the members but members were able to explain. The health educator encouraged members to put whatever they have learned into practice, take their health as a priority.
