Mother's class

These mothers have children who are underweight, have yellow,
skin and swollen bellies.  They are waiting to receive soya flour
for porridge and are being taught about the 4 food groups.

Our Malawi representative, Mkakeni Jere, visited  the clinic at Dwanga recently and made this report:


On this day I leart a lot of things that I never seen before, I see that mothers were kept into 4 groups, the first group was for the mothers came for weighing their babies, from this group it was found that there other 2 groups whose their children, are under weight and swelling, another group that have well fed babies, another group is that the mothers do not come to clinic regularly to receive vaccine and the last is for the conceive women. After all activities, mothers gathered together to receive the lessons of how they can be taking care of their babies and how they can convince their husband on family planning. 

In 2015, the Sinkhani health workers in Malawi taught classes for over 14,000 mothers.
