Since 1976, health promoters in El Salvador have been key to bringing health services closer to remote communities, reaching hard-to-access areas and helping thousands of families receive basic care. Recently, thanks to a project funded by UHC-P and in collaboration with the Ministry of Health (MINSAL), the Basic Course for Health Promoters was updated. This new training is aimed at the more than 3000 promoters across the country, who serve more than 730 000 families. The objective of the course is to strengthen primary healthcare through an integrated, community-level approach that centers on the individual, the family, and the community. The first phase of the project took place in the departments of Morazán and La Unión, where 373 promoters received training to improve their skills and continue providing quality care to more than 55 000 families.
