Training Centre for Community Health

HOME > Our Projects - Training Centre for Community Health





Many organizations and individuals look forward to understand and learn from the SEWA Rural's experiences mixed with successes and setbacks. To facilitate this, a training centre was established in 1990 with modern facilities for which financial assistance was graciously given by the US based share & care foundation which was initiated by Indians settled in America. Students from various faculties from India & abroad, workers from voluntary organizations (grassroot workers & paramedical workers of community health project, comprehensive eye programme and rehabilitation programme for the blind) and Intern doctors from Medical Colleges of Gujarat & also from USA take advantage of the training centre. Every year about more than 50 varied organizations and over 1000 trainees are benefited. In addition few of our doctors and other friends have started various health & development activities for the poor in other areas having worked in SEWA Rural for few years. This is a matter of lot of joy and great satisfaction for us. Various training programmes and workshops are also organised for the workers of SEWA Rural so as to enhance as well as reaffirm their competence, knowledge and involvement beside the informal core value of organization.

On 18th Feb 2010 New Health Training Reseourse Centre has been started with the Helping Mother Foundation of Govt. of India.
