The Multi-Dimensional Resource Center, Nepal
The Multi-Dimensional Resource Center (MRC) designed its project to provide services that would benefit the ultra poor and disadvantaged, marginalized communities in remote rural areas of the Makwanpur district in Nepal. The organization worked diligently to build capacity among community members and health technicians on preventive and curative measures against TB that would ensure timely diagnosis and treatment. It has formed community groups to deliver testimonials and distribute health information as well as trained individuals who become motivators and provide support for adherence to treatment as well as patients' families. As a result, the organization has achieved significant results in terms of prevention, check-ups and treatment adherence of TB patients. Using a bottom up approach to community mobilization, MRC is providing the first response for TB prevention, detection and treatment in critical need areas.
