Community Health and Empowerment
The Community Health and Empowerment Programme promotes the healthy physical, social, and emotional well-being of migrants by empowering them to make changes in both personal behavior and societal attitudes on sex, relationships, HIV/AIDS and gender.
Our Activities
Community Health and Empowerment (CHE) has been a part of an on-going grant under the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. The latest round of the project promotes prevention of HIV and tuberculosis through outreach, mass screening, followed up with testing, and referral and follow-up for those who are infected. MAP has reached thousands of migrants with HIV and Tuberculosis screening and testing through mobile clinics and MAP’s own Health Testing Center which allows migrants to test for HIV, Syphilis, and Hepatitis B and C. All testing is linked to treatment.
