A Spanish version of a manual on workshops for training nutrition and health field educators to approach communities more sensitively emphasizes techniques for involving community members in efforts to achieve better health and nutrition. Experiential workshop materials and techniques have been field-tested in several countries, including Indonesia and the Dominican Republic. Workshops consist of 3 short sessions (10-15 days each), spaced 3 to 4 months apart, with a multidisciplinary approach. Workshop activities are conducted in three subgroups, which organize their work in flexible, interacting smaller units. Practical applications and fieldwork in three villages are essential components, with participants returning to their own agencies between training sessions, to transfer the new techniques into immediate use. At the beginning of each new training session, participants share their field experiences and members of the training team provide feedback. Participants are also trained in evaluation methods. Training activities fall into four categories: training community health and nutrition workers, helping communities uncover health and nutrition problems, creating learning activities, and planning and evaluating with the community. All activities are presented in a format which specifies setting, time needed, purpose, preparation, and procedure. (MH)
