Madhya Pradesh Samaj Seva Sanstha (MPSSS) organized a two-day training program on community management of malnutrition for village volunteers and community volunteers from 06th to 07th November 2023 at AICUF Ashram, Bhopal. The training was part of MPSSS's ongoing project- People Led Development Process to enhance the skills, competencies, and abilities of its volunteers.  Forty-five participants from five partner organizations – KDSS-Khandwa, Kripa-Ujjain, Pragti-Jhabua, MVSS, Sagar, and SSSS-Satna – attended the training. The training was inaugurated by Rev. Fr. Shinto Abraham and facilitated by resource person Mr. Vishambhar Nath Tripathi from Vikas Samavd, Bhopal.  The objective of the training was to empower participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively address health issues related to hunger and malnutrition in their communities. The training focused on strategies for improving community management of malnutrition with the support of Anganwadi workers, Asha workers, and local communities.  Participants developed action plans outlining their strategies for applying the training learnings to improve the situation of malnutrition in their respective communities. They also committed to documenting their efforts for future analysis and evaluation.  All five partner organizations submitted action plans to MPSSS, indicating their commitment to implementing the training learnings and making a positive impact on community health and nutrition.
