Under the ENRICH Project in Sujawal, the orientation and training sessions were facilitated by Dr. Nadia Shah, Miss Tehreem Hussain, Dr. Samra Abid Malik, Dr. Syed Omair Adil, and Mr. Abdur Rafay.

The CBO training in the Begna and Jati areas of Sujawal brought together responsible and motivated community members committed to contributing to positive change in the health and well-being of their communities. Participants represented diverse backgrounds, including health workers, homemakers, and male community members, all of whom demonstrated enthusiasm and a strong willingness to support healthier families and communities.

Through the training, participants developed a better understanding of the key challenges related to routine immunization, nutrition, and family planning within their communities. They also explored how community-level barriers, misconceptions, limited awareness, and gaps in access can prevent families from utilizing essential health services.

The CBO members were prepared to work hand in hand with communities and local health services through awareness raising, household and community engagement, identification of families in need of support, referral to appropriate health services, and follow-up. By building trust and motivating families to seek timely care, the CBOs aim to strengthen the connection between communities and available health services and contribute to improved health and well-being of families in Sujawal, particularly in the Begna and Jati areas.
