Divide participants into pairs. Ask participants to practice negotiation sessions (four to six mothers per team). Divide the tasks for each team as follows: One participant negotiates with a mother while other participants observe, using the negotiation observation checklist (see Document #55, Observation Checklist for Support Groups, above). Then participants provide feedback. Reverse roles until each team has negotiated with four to six mothers. When all the teams have had a chance to practice negotiation skills, review feedback in plenary. In plenary, have each team present the strong points and points to be improved. Summarize key points and reinforce important ones. Activity 3: Experience Sharing (45 minutes) Divide participants into three groups. Have each group describe its community work. Discuss the strong points, problems encountered, and solutions undertaken to solve those problems. For each unsolved problem, ask group members to suggest potential appropriate solutions. The goal is for group members to see how to improve their way of working, choose which activities to maintain, and decide on optimal next steps. Closing Present and summarize group thoughts and highlights. Set a date for the next meeting. Session 14: Implementation and Action Learning Objectives At the end of the session, participants will be able to: Review the various activities where the community workers can work to improve the health of women and children; also consider the places and occasions where they can do this.
