The Russian NGO "Together Hand in Hand Niger-Russia" has organized health education seminars in Niger, focusing on hygiene and disease prevention. This was reported by a correspondent from "African Initiative."
The classes are led by local doctor Abdoulaye Harouna Balkissa, who received her medical training in Russia. The seminars are held monthly and are tailored to meet the specific needs of the local community. The May session covered personal hygiene and the dangers of self-medication, which sparked significant interest among attendees.
According to the NGO, such programs help bring healthcare closer to the people, combat misinformation, and foster a culture of disease prevention.
