Evaluering
End of NONM/NNO Project Evaluation Report
A Needs assessment survey among nurses, midwives and other health personnel groups in Malawi in 2005, provided sufficient evidence to conclude that Malawian nurses, midwives and other health personnel groups needed updated information about HIV/AIDS, in order to adequately treat patients and avoid infection, both at the workplace and in their social life. Those already infected were in need of care and support, and needed to be enabled in order to live positively and maintain their professional careers for as long as possible. At that time, the National Association of Nurses of Malawi (NANM) was a small association with only 50 members, who had little influence. With this as a backdrop, a project called “Caring for HIV-positive care-givers and strengthening of NANM” was initiated. The project was running from 2006 through 2011.
