The Navrongo Health Research Centre in collaboration with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has begun training for 31 health professionals as field workers for the Evaluation of the AYA Integrated Healthcare Initiative (AYA-IHI) under Ghanaโ€™s Networks of Practice (NoP)!
Non-communicable diseases like hypertension (HTN) and Type 2 diabetes (T2D) remain a major public health challenge in Ghana. Many people are undiagnosed, untreated, or poorly monitored, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other complications.
The Networks of Practice (NoP) initiative was introduced by the Government of Ghana to strengthen primary healthcare, bridge gaps between CHPS compounds and district hospitals, and improve screening, diagnosis, referral, and control of NCDs.
Through the AYA-IHI project, targeted interventions are being implemented across 16 districts in the Ashanti Region to improve NCD care.
The 6-day workshop will entail training health workers on HTN and T2D guidelines, strengthening referral systems, expanding community screening, empowering patients for self-management, and building sustainable laboratory and research systems.
The newly trained field workers will support a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation process that tracks:
โœ”๏ธ Provider training and knowledge
โœ”๏ธ Screening and diagnosis rates
โœ”๏ธ Use of digital health tools
โœ”๏ธ Patient self-management
โœ”๏ธ Continuity of care for HTN and T2D
This evaluation will generate critical evidence to guide policies and strengthen Ghanaโ€™s primary healthcare system for better NCD prevention and control.
At the Navrongo Health Research Centre (NHRC), we remain committed to advancing people-centred, data-driven healthcare that improves lives and builds a healthier Ghana.

As part of a series of activities and discussions to formulate contextually relevant interventions for Pregnant women and newborns, the Navrongo Health Research Centre hosted a transformative Roundtable Workshop on Heat, Health, and Pregnancy, under the Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies (HeMab) project.
This engagement brought together key stakeholders, including health professionals, traditional leaders, community representatives, district authorities, researchers to form a Society Advisory Group (SAG) to assist in generating favorable interventions for an increasingly urgent public health concern: how heat stress affects pregnant women and newborns.

The workshop co-facilitated by and aimed to deepen collective understanding of the intersection between heat exposure and maternal health, while identifying strategies to integrate research evidence into health policy and practice.
Key discussion areas included:
โœณ๏ธ Local perceptions and lived experiences of heat stress among pregnant women
โœณ๏ธ Emerging insights from the HeMab intervention and Stakeholder Advisory Group activities
โœณ๏ธ Practical actions for health systems and communities to support pregnant mothers and newborns
โœณ๏ธ Pathways for integrating project outcomes into regional heat action and adaptation plans
The workshop reinforced the value of grounded, community-informed research and the importance of cross-sector engagement in improving maternal and neonatal health outcomes.

Today, on World Mosquito Day, the Navrongo Health Research Centre (NHRC) joins the global community to reflect on the impact of mosquitoes on human health and the urgent need for continued research, prevention, and community action.
At Navrongo Health Research Centre, we are committed to advancing research that helps reduce the burden of mosquito-borne diseases.
Through studies on malaria vaccines, vector control strategies, and health system interventions, we are contributing to evidence-based solutions that save lives and improve community health.
On this day, we also remind everyone of the practical steps we can all take to stay safe from mosquitoes:
โœ… Use Mosquito repellents
โœ… Sleep under insecticide-treated bed nets
โœ… Keep mosquitoes out of your homes by installing doors and window screens
โœ… Wear protective clothing during peak biting times.

As we observe World Mosquito Day, we reaffirm our collective commitment to a future free from the devastating impact of mosquito-borne diseases.

As a pilot site for the BRAVE project, Navrongo Health Research Centre (NHRC) shared its experiences in:
โœ” Conducting hospital-based active surveillance
โœ” Utilizing Health and Demographic Surveillance System (HDSS) monitoring
