The Liberia branch of Plan International is today graduating thirty Traditional Birth Attendants in Voinjama, Lofa County.


The thirty TBAs are drawn from Kolahun, Vahun and Foyah Districts in the county.
 

Plan-Liberia conducted four months training for the TBAs to serve as traditional mid-wives in the north-western county.
 

The organization said it would provide tool-kits for the graduates to make in the rural communities more effective.
 

The training is part of a national Poverty Reduction Strategy program launched by government.
 

As implementing partner, Plan-Liberia, is to train five thousand Traditional Birth Attendants across the country by 2010.
