Info

Explain that we cannot make diagnoses or give medical advice, but a medical expert will be available during the joint feedback meeting on Day Five. Encourage women to get answers to their questions by asking their local health providers. The session on Day Five will be used to answer questions about how to access and obtain different services.

Session 4: Identifying Health Services and Gaps Target Groups: ALL Facilitator’s Note: In this session participants will list health services in the community and the surrounding area that address the health problems identified in Session 3. They also will list services that are missing. If the workshop is held in a small rural community, this session starts off by making a COMMUNITY MAP – a rough map of key features and institutions in the community. This becomes a reference point <strong>for</strong> naming different services in the community. If the workshop is held in a large urban area or participants have come together from many villages, community mapping is not used and participants, working in small groups, simply list services available in their area. Ideally the groups are <strong>for</strong>med with participants from the same village or area. Things to Guard Against: Creating the map is fun, but don’t waste too much time on this. The important point is the discussion that follows on health services. Getting participants to generate a full list of existing services will take some probing, including the use of the checklist. In one community where we piloted this approach, women said at first they had no services. Further prompting got them to say they had a clinic, school, church and orphanage – all of which provided different services – and a shebeen that sold condoms. Objectives: ●● ●● ●● Clarify understanding on what health services are available at community level. Identify the major gaps in existing health services <strong>for</strong> women. Increase awareness of health rights and services, and encourage participants to share this in<strong>for</strong>mation with other women, service providers and community leaders. Time: 1 hour and 30 minutes Materials: ●● ●● ●● Sticker labels (three different colors) or yellow card (half sheets of A4 paper) One marker <strong>for</strong> each participant. Pencils and erasers Checklist of possible services – each service written on a card Preparation: Ask participants during the morning break whether they want to do the community map on the floor or on sheets of flipchart paper. If the <strong>for</strong>mer, ask them to gather stones, sticks, etc. to mark up the map. Chapter C: Facilitating <strong>Community</strong> Assessment Workshops 39
