Helping Health Workers Learn

This heavily illustrated book is an important resource for anyone involved in community health education. Methods and experiences from at least 35 countries are discussed, and the focus is educational rather than medical. Activities suggested for the most effective and enjoyable community education include theatre, drawing, flannel boards, and other low-cost, popular teaching aids. Helping Health Workers Learn provides a people-centred approach to health care and presents strategies for effective community involvement through participatory education.
