In June and July 2024, The Embassy of Health and Wellness delivered its comprehensive Healthcare Training Programme to students and teachers in Federal Unity Schools across Nigeria's geopolitical zones.
The programme introduces healthcare education at a formative stage — building foundational health knowledge, practical skills such as first aid, and early interest in healthcare careers. Teachers are trained alongside students, multiplying the programme's reach into classrooms and communities.
Training sessions combined practical demonstrations with health education materials, including the Embassy's first-aid resources and health and wellness literature. Sessions were also extended to communities such as Orozo in the Federal Capital Territory.
The full training timetable for the 2024 programme is available in our publications library.
