Promoting healthy ancestral practices that will
aid in controlling diseases transmitted by arthropods. |
| |
| |
Malaria cases have increased steadily over the
last several years. The objective of this initiative is to identify and
promote healthy ancestral practices that promote the control of diseases
transmitted by arthropods in the jungle communities of Pastaza. These
practices include but are not limited to the use of plants as insect repellent
or using smoke within the houses to repel mosquitoes and other insects.
This initiative aims to identify the main ancestral practices that help control
diseases transmitted by arthropods and design didactic and promotional material
regarding the prevention of these transmittable diseases with an intercultural
focus. In addition the initiative aims to train personnel of the Malaria
Control Service in basic intervention concepts, with a focus on intercultural
communication. |
