The objectives of Guatemalas research program for the training of rural health promoters (PRINAPS) are the following: 1) to form in 5 health areas 400 rural health promoters 200 of them with their respective wives or any other female relative that will live in the same house with the promoter; 2) develop 2 educational models in the training of rural health promoters--the traditional and the modular model; 3) establish a municipal sale of medicines in each of the 5 health areas in order to guarantee supplies for the rural health promoters of the program; and 4) to develop a supervisory model for the rural health promoter. The training program will last 36 months and it will provide training to 400 rural health promoters. Each promoter either alone or with an assistant will serve a population of about 250 persons. The total population covered by the trained promoters will be a little more than 100000 people in the 5 health areas. The physician of the district along with the technician in rural health will organize activities for continuous education. The promoters will be included. The design and evaluation plan of the investigation are summarized in tables. A series of motivational measures directed to the personnel of the health services have resulted in a greater acceptance of the family planning program in the working areas. This is important for it demonstrates that with the use of a similar methodology a new program can be implemented at the national level. The teachers guides and the promoter handbooks have developed in detail the themes of family planning. The promoters have begun the promotion and the sale of contraceptives to families in the community.

There is a need for low-cost family planning and maternal and child health (MCH) in rural Nigeria where the crude birth rate is 50/1000 death rate is 20/1000 and infant mortality rate is 111/1000; population growth is 3% and physician density is 1/60000 people. A program to train nurse-widwives in the supervision of community agents in MCH/family planning delivery of service information and supplies was tested in Akinyele North Local Government Area population 85000. Maternity centers supervised 18-32 agents who were equipped to give 1st aid primary care for malaria cough anemia worms and diarrhea for a voluntary nominal fee and free information. 1/3 of the agents were male volunteers 2/3 female traditional birth assistants (TBAs). Directed by the personnel of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of University College Hospital Ibadan with foreign funding and technical assistance the project included a 2-week training course (to be reinforced by practical training) for the agents after their selection by village leaders during which they were trained to execute health education on a wide range of subjects from environmental health to contraceptive use and trained in the use of medical kits. Recordkeeping included inventory records for supplies especially drugs. Agents had some authority to refer patients to a health facility. Results of a 1980 preliminary survey showed a continued pronatalist sentiment and opposition to family planning decreasing slightly with age and education but with developed postpartum abstinence and prolonged breastfeeding. Involving village leaders in the project has apparently been effective and there is evidence of lives saved by agent referrals. During June 1985 over 1100 were treated for illness and 50 became new family planning acceptors. The initial field results will be useful as planning feedback.
