Strengthening Health System in Nakoli Community – Kabwe District: Community Ambulance Handover.
JCM under the Child Labour project collaborated with the community structures to KNH lobby for an ambulance in Nakoli community and this was as result of the death of a pregnant woman on her way to the hospital. The process of lobbying for an ambulance involved community meetings to design a proposal in consultation with the District Health Office and was submitted to submission to KinderNotHilfe (KNH). Through consultation and further lobbying, KNH was able to come to the aid of the community and on the 13th of April 2011, it was officially handed over to the District Health Office for use in Nakoli health facility. The ambulance greatly contributed to addressing transport challenges especially under Maternal and Child Health programmes.
