Projects for Peace 2024
A national TV crew interviewed participants at the opening event to generate interest in the health screening program.
Savadogo's nonprofit is called the Association Télé Karaongo, which translates to “supporting education.” As part of the nonprofit's health screening project, participants gathered in a tent awaiting medical care.
Savadogo designed a four-day health and education campaign focused on conducting workshops, offering screenings for cervical cancer, and administering hepatitis B vaccinations.
To encourage participation and to help address participants’ food insecurities, the project provided each participant with 25 kg of rice and 2.5 liters of cooking oil.
On-the-ground collaborators included local government organizations, humanitarian nonprofits, and medical personnel, such as certified nurses and midwives.
