What are the present activities of the ant as a support and training organisation in the northeast?
the ant plays a supportive role for organistions and volunteers in other parts of the northeast who are engaged in development activities. It has worked chiefly in four ways: · Trainings: We have been invited as a resource group for training NGO personnel on issues in which we have expertise – community health programmes; malaria prevention and management; essential drugs; social analysis; NGO management; research methods, self help groups etc. · Consultations & Evaluations: From helping organisations in conceptualising a plan of action to assistance in evaluation of projects of other organisations has been a role that the ant uses to guide agencies towards community – driven sustainable development. · Publications: In order to reach out to a larger audience, the ant published material that has been translated into various languages, some of it by others. Some of these include: A to Z of Malaria ….and more, Your Medicine Box, Health Diary cum Manual and a Three Phase manual to train
