Abstract:
This paper explores innovative strategies for delivering health education in crisis-affected areas of northeastern Nigeria. Amidst ongoing conflict and displacement, traditional health education methods face significant challenges. This study investigates alternative approaches, including mobile health units, digital platforms, and community-based interventions, aimed at improving health literacy and outcomes in these regions. By examining case studies and pilot programs, the paper highlights the effectiveness of these methods in addressing the unique needs of affected populations. The findings underscore the importance of adaptive and resilient health education systems in enhancing public health and well-being in crisis settings.
Description:
The North East region of Nigeria has been severely impacted by ongoing crises, including insurgency, internal displacement, and environmental degradation have severely affected the regional economy (Chukwuma, A., & Nwachukwu, E. 2022)[1]. Health education and crisis management in Nigeria are challenges that undermined the healthcare infrastructure and access to health education, exacerbating the vulnerability of populations in the area (World Health Organization 2021)[3]. Addressing health education requires innovative and adaptive strategies to overcome barriers and meet the unique needs of the affected communities.
