Malaria Educational Materials for Health Workers (French)

This set of three French-language materials for health workers involved in malaria prevention and control in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), was developed and produced by C-Change/DRC. The materials consist of a message guide, a set of counselling cards, and a job aid.

The message guide provides information and guidance for community leaders and health workers on appropriate responses to key questions asked by the community on malaria prevention and treatment. According to C-Change/DRC, these questions were collected from journalists and through phone-in radio and television programmes. This message guide can be used by community leaders, health workers, media professionals, and teachers. It was created with the staff of National Malaria Control Program (NMCP) and developed between October 2010 and July 2011. Training on the guide began in February 2012.
The set of eight counselling cards are designed to assist health workers in their delivery of malaria prevention and treatment counselling. The cards can also be given to families to assist and encourage them to take action to prevent malaria and receive timely and effective treatment. The cards provide information on what the action is, why it is important, and how to do the action. The cards also provide prompts for a question and answer session, so that the health worker can be sure that the key messages have indeed been digested and understood by the family.
