Training and supervision have been cited as integral aspects to well-functioning community health worker (CHW) programmes. This chapter initially outlines the rationale for this book, discussing the global health equity gap, the roles of CHWs, the need for CHW training and supervision, and the role technology can play in these. The chapter then introduces the main sections of the book: Section One of the book focuses on training and supervision; Section Two explores the intersection of technology and education in the context of CHW training; Section Three investigates how methodological choice can contribute to social justice in CHW programmes and facilitate CHW training in an equitable way; and in Section Four, ethical issues arising from CHW training are discussed. |
