On the 7th of March 2026, Nimo Care Association, in partnership with the Global Governance team, actively participated in the Health for Rémé Family Camp, an initiative aimed at supporting pregnant women and families through education and shared experiences. The activity took place at Ann Therma Primary School, Lower Wonya Emongo Community, and brought together health professionals, community members, and expectant mothers for a meaningful learning session.
During the event, Nimo Care Association contributed significantly to discussions on sexual and reproductive health, emphasizing the importance of informed decision-making and access to accurate health information for women and girls.
Key topics addressed during the training included the importance of early antenatal care, encouraging pregnant women to begin hospital visits early in pregnancy to monitor both maternal and baby’s health. Participants were also educated on maintaining a healthy pregnancy, including guidance on nutritious foods to eat, foods to avoid, and healthy lifestyle practices that promote the well-being of both mother and child.
The session also focused on preparing the mind and body for delivery, discussing both normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section, helping women understand that each birth experience is different and that proper preparation can reduce fear and anxiety.
Another important discussion centered on postpartum depression, where facilitators explained its possible causes, signs to look out for, and practical ways families and communities can support new mothers to manage emotional and psychological challenges after childbirth.
The training session was highly interactive, with pregnant women actively participating by asking questions, sharing personal experiences, and engaging in open discussions with facilitators. This exchange created a supportive environment where women felt encouraged and empowered with knowledge for their pregnancy journey.
Nimo Care Association remains committed to promoting maternal health, sexual and reproductive health rights, and community awareness, and looks forward to continued collaboration with partners to support healthier families and communities
