It was therefore carried out remotely during autumn 2020. The training content was organised into several modules available on an online platform, translated into Malagasy in the form of audio recordings.<\/p>\n<p>The following modules were covered:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the maternal and neonatal health situation in the world and in Madagascar<\/li>\n<li>maternal and neonatal health rights<\/li>\n<li>respect for women and newborns<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A module on COVID-19 was added to inform healthcare providers about the impact of the disease on maternal and neonatal health. This section informs medical staff on how to protect themselves and help keep women and children safe during consultations.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to a theoretical part, the training includes a practical component. This allows healthcare workers to put the training content into practice and regularly exchange ideas with the training team in order to make continuous improvements. This method also helps identify the training needs of healthcare professionals. Enfants du Monde plans to expand its scope beyond the Ambanja district hospital by making the training available to healthcare workers in rural health centres.<\/p>\n                                                                                                            <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n\n\n    \n    <section class=\"quoteImage leftTextRightImg \" style=\"display:\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"leftTextRightImgRow\">\n                                    <div class=\"right\">\n                                                    <div class=\"imgBlock\">\n                                <a class=\"figure_block\" href=\"https:\/\/edm.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/RS4468_CeciliaCapello-1.jpg\" data-fancybox data-caption=\"\">\n                                    <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/edm.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/RS4468_CeciliaCapello-1.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1920px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1920\/1920;\" \/>\n                                                                    <\/a>\n                                <figcaption><\/figcaption>\n                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                                    <div class=\"left\">\n                        <div class=\"content\">\n                            <h3>                                Cecilia Capello <small>Health specialist,<\/small>\n                            <\/h3>                            <div class=\"quote\">                                <p>More respectful maternal and neonatal care helps improve women&#8217;s satisfaction with medical services and encourages them to visit health centres.<\/p>\n<p>We have built strong relationships with the team at Ambanja Hospital, learning to rely on them completely to implement each stage of the project.
