Abstract | A Village Health Team (VHT) is a voluntary team of community members at village level, which aims to improve the health status of the community through facilitating processes of mobilisation, empowerment and participation in delivering, managing and improving health services at household level. This case examines how the VHTs were made functional in the Acholi Sub region that has been recovering from 20 years of civil war, and specifically in Kitgum District. |
