The team dedicated some time developing strategic partnerships for upcoming interventions. We developed new programs that provided a solution to some existing social and economic challenges that came up frequently during interventions. Monitoring and evaluation helped the team learned that financial difficulties were among the top drivers of stress among people.
We developed a wellness program that integrates vocational skills training with intepersonal counseling. The training began with the Wisdom&Wellness Counselors (WWCs) who have been able to use their newly acquired skills for income generation. As we are still fundraising to implement the Heling Hands project in Sinza ward with a projected reach of over 50,000 residents, the team was able to launch the project with training through support
We were also able to continue with awareness raising efforts which includes our daily blog, Mazungumzo Ya Busara, tapping into the WWCs wisdom and bridging the intergenerational gap through story telling.
