MABEDA Outreach Promotes Maternal and Child Health
Last week, SAFE Community Group, Matove Beads Development Association (MABEDA) held an outreach event. Events like this allow the community members to perform educational dramas and songs that they write about maternal and child health. Subjects that they cover include everything from the importance of delivering in a health center to the signs and symptoms of malaria (and how to prevent and treat it) to hygiene to gender equality.
Above picture: some of the children who attended the event with their parents--never to young to learn about the importance of good maternal and child health! Way to go MABEDA!
