services. The initiative was in an effort to execute the MoH 2018-2022 strategic plan. MoH Deputy Principal Secretary (DPS) \u2018Mat\u0161oanelo Monyobi said the overarching goal of the<\/p>\n

MoH is to increase access to \u201cquality preventive, curative and rehabilitative\u201d health care services. Monyobi highlighted that the Ministry has engaged the media fraternity for the latter to appreciate<\/p>\n

the efforts undertaken by the MoH in ensuring access to SRMACH&N services. \u201cThe media plays a crucial role in disseminating health information and increasing awareness about<\/p>\n

all health issues. The mass media does not only spread awareness, it has also been informing and educating people over a period of time,\u201d she said. Sister \u2018Makhotso<\/p>\n

T\u0161otetsi from Family Health said the training is envisaged to capacitate the media practitioners \u201cto facilitate a supportive policy environment and generate<\/p>\n

considerable demand\u201d for SRMNCAH & N services. She said the purpose of the training is to strengthen the collaboration with the Districts Management Health Teams (DMHTs).<\/p>\n

One of the attendants, Kefiloe Kajane, a Journalist at The Reporter newspaper said the workshop will help her enhance her reporting, as she will from now handle stories \u201cdifferently\u201d and avoid mistakes.<\/p>\n

She made an anecdote on reporting the victims of Gender Based Violence (GBV) saying when reporting on such sensitive stories, she will not make the victim \u201crelive\u201d the<\/p>\n

experience of the violence perpetrated on them. \u201cI will not just want the story but also ask them questions that will contribute to their healing,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Asked what some of her takeaways were during the time she had been in the training, she said some issues need professionals in the areas of concern in<\/p>\n

order to ensure that she produces \u201cauthentic\u201d stories. \u201cWhen we hear from them how our stories can impact the health system and people in general, we will be able to improve as reporters,\u201d Kajane stressed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
