Progress Report: Fiscal Year 2016 (October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016)
Ethiopia, Somalia, Uganda, Zambia

World Vision joins thousands of children and their families in sharing our gratitude for trained community health workers who are providing the valuable frontline healthcare and priceless knowledge that is critical to mother and child survival.

Women in Ethiopia are receiving treatment for debilitating damage caused by having babies without the aid of trained medical personnel. Children in Uganda are getting growth monitoring and referrals to nutrition programs when needed. Zambian health facility staff and volunteers are learning from U.S. medical service volunteers who are sharing their knowledge and time to improve care in two health facilities.

The Church Partnership for Child Well-being (CPCWB) project is a five-year intervention that commenced in October 2010. The project is funded by World Vision U.S.

The project’s overall purpose is to support churches to focus on the well-being of children and engage in community development and spiritual nurture of children. The project is the first of its kind within the World Vision international partnership.
