Friday, in the commune of Fort-Liberté took place the launch of community activities of project SHOW (Strengthening Health Outcomes for Women and Children).

This project will serve the communes of Capotille, Fort-Liberté and Ouanaminthe. Although it is essentially a project on maternal and child health services, it will also reach a major problem, that of gender equity and services to teenage girl.

Project officials, stresses that it is indeed imperative that men support their partners in the context of maternal and child health. They also point out that the availability of information in the service centers, is not a luxury, but an obligation.

As part of this project, much effort will be made to make health service centers warmest, especially for teenagers boys and girls, in order to create the habit of going to hospitals or health centers, for all that relates to sexual and reproductive health in particular .
