L’élimination du paludisme nécessite l’engagement de tous. Afin de maintenir les communautés alertes et engagées, nous allons nous appuyer sur des exemples réussis d’engagement communautaire pour élaborer un programme de sensibilisation sur le paludisme en milieu communautaire et ce par ...des acteurs issus de la communauté ayant au préalable bénéficié d’une formation par des techniciens de la santé.
Ce programme qui a pour ambition d’être multisectoriel, vient renforcer les initiatives déjà mises en œuvre au sein de la communauté. A l’opposé des dispensateurs de soins à domicile (DSDOM) ou acteurs communautaires de soins, les champions communautaires sur lesquels se basera le programme en question n’auront pour objectif que la sensibilisation par la communication pour le changement de comportement. En soutien aux activités mises en œuvre par les districts et leurs partenaires, le programme vise à renforcer les capacités et l’encadrement de personnes bénévoles qui souhaitent s’impliquer ou sont déjà impliquées pour l’amélioration du cadre de vie et la santé de leur communauté et ainsi contribuer à l’élimination du paludisme au Sénégal.
Enfin, ce guide vient en complément au guide de formation sur le paludisme pour le relais communautaire, développé par le Programme National de Lutte contre le Paludisme (PNLP) en octobre 2015.
