Community Maternal Health Training & Capacity Building

Our approach to training is built on the belief that systemic change happens when we empower the people who are already on the front lines. We work with organizations like Sangama and Gubbachi NGO to conduct capacity-building workshops that address the real, day-to-day challenges of maternal and newborn health.

What We Cover

Our training modules are designed for nurses, ASHA workers, and community health volunteers who want to provide more evidence-based support. We cover:

• Breastfeeding Support: Practical techniques to help mothers overcome common latching difficulties and understand milk supply.
• Maternal Nutrition: Simple, actionable advice on pregnancy and postpartum nutrition that works within local dietary habits.
• Newborn Care: Gentle, evidence-based methods for newborn handling and hygiene.
• Physical Wellness: Demonstrations on movement and exercises to alleviate common issues like back pain during pregnancy, as seen in our sessions at the Urban PHC in Nandini Layout.

Why Community Training Matters

Healthcare is not just about medical intervention; it is about providing mothers with correct, unbiased information in a language they understand. By training those who are already trusted by the community, we create a support system that is more accessible, respectful, and effective. We aim to debunk widespread myths—like the idea that specific foods are a cure-all—and replace them with actionable facts that help mothers make informed decisions about their own bodies and their babies.
