  • Screening and treatment of malnourished children;
  • Facilitation of community-led total sanitation to mobilize the whole community in creating a healthy environment;
  • Distribution of soap and hygiene packages in high-risk areas due to conflict or disaster.
  • Provision of primary health care for people in need and capacity building of health workers;
