The Capacity Project is currently supporting training workshops in five Project-supported nursing and midwifery schools in Rwanda.

During a two-week session ending December 19, the Project trained 14 teachers at the Nyagatare, Kibungo, Rwamagana, Byumba and Kabgayi Nursing and Midwifery Schools in the delivery of emergency obstetric care.

The first week of the session explored theoretical issues while the second week provided practical experience. The teachers will now integrate their new knowledge and skills into the pre-service training practicum for A1 nurses and midwives.
