African Refugee Health Initiative

African Refugee Health Initiative

AXION

The FORGE Health Services project is unique and different because it is a community Health project designed and implemented directly by community members, instead of by staff members of NGOs working in Meheba. While the project is heavily affiliated with FORGE, the organization that will help us find financial support, all decisions about program design and implementation are made by Meheba community members who are refugees, whereas all other projects in Meheba are designed by outside organizations. This distinction is essential given the level of ownership our community has for the project's success. Furthermore, in addition to providing basic clinical services as have been provided in the Block G community in the past, the FORGE Health Services project uses a uniqu community-Health-worker approach that focuses on certifying a group of community members to provide basic consultations and make basic referrals and provide health education workshops within Block G.
