TRAINING
The Chau Mosquito Campaign proposes different training courses for multipliers, facilitators and local teams from communities affected by dengue, Zika, chikungunya and yellow fever.
In the training, the topics are worked on with a participatory and community approach. All materials and resources are provided so that those participating can replicate it, promote other actions and disseminate the information in their communities.
Within the framework of Covid-19 pandemic, and in a context of a strong dengue epidemic outbreak in the region, during 2020 we reoriented the campaign to continue supporting prevention actions through digital media.
During 2020-2021 we continue with distance training through different platforms. To do this, we have adapted the contents, resources and activities to this new modality.
