The Columbia Center for Community Health in collaboration with the Columbia Global Center, Mumbai hosted a learning collaborative “Training Community Health Workers After COVID-19” in Mumbai, India.
The goal of this learning collaborative was to:
- Present lessons from InTOuCH’s program in New York City
- Learn from successes and challenges from CHWs in India and
- Explore potential for partnerships
The workshop was attended by dignitaries from the Indian government, civil society and international aid organizations with an experience in developing, implementing and monitoring community-based programs with Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs).
We hope to build on this exploratory collaboration to develop more robust training and evaluation practices based on global models.
