Community Health and Wellness
At Greener Ethiopia, we believe that a healthy community is the foundation of a sustainable future. Our Public Health and Wellness Program brings together health, environment, and inclusion addressing not only diseases but the social and ecological conditions that shape people’s well-being.
What We Do
We promote preventive healthcare, nutrition, and mental wellness through community-led initiatives that empower families, youth, and local leaders to take charge of their health and environment.
Our key activities include:
Community Health Screenings:
Early detection of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as hypertension and diabetes.
Maternal, Child, and Adolescent Health:
Supporting early childhood development, reproductive health, and maternal wellness through education and outreach.
Nutrition and WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene):
Promoting healthy diets, hygiene, and safe environments at household and school levels.
Mental Health & Youth Empowerment:
Engaging youth clubs in health literacy, menstrual hygiene, and mental well-being programs.
Disability Inclusion:
Training health workers and communities to ensure access and dignity for persons with disabilities.
Eco-Health Integration:
Linking environmental restoration (tree planting, watershed management, clean energy) with better community health outcomes.
