Participants on last year's course
Following the success of the school health and nutrition (SHN) and HIV prevention programmes course in Kilifi, Kenya last year, the Partnership for Child Development and partners are co-organising the 9th African SHN Course, which will be hosted by the Ghanaian Government, between 10 - 20 June 2013.



Course Issue in Focus

This year's course selected Issue in Focus is that of Nutrition in the School-Age Child and Adolescents. For ten days attendees will engage in both classroom and field based learning in which exchange of best practice and regional knowledge and experience is prioritised.

Delegates will be able to attend a mixture of hands-on action planning workshops, expertly-facilitated lectures on a range of school health and nutrition topics including the key topic of Nutrition and participate in field-based learning through the Ghanaian context.

PCD is to host the course in collaboration with the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research (NMIMR), and the Eastern and Southern Africa Centre of International Parasite Control (ESACIPAC).
