In 2019 ENCO received funds from International Forum of indigenous Women (FIMI) for (PAGE) Project, a one-year project set to operate within Monduli district. The project aimed at;
Increased awareness and knowledge on prevention of HIV/AIDS, Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) and abandonment of FGM/cutting practices; The activities directly reached a total of forty five (45) Peer health educators, traditional birth attendance and two hundred and four (204) school girls. This is to say the above numbers have got sufficient knowledge on HIV/AIDS, Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) and abandonment of FGM/cutting practices and with a hope that the knowledge will be transferred to at least 1225 people.
After this project a number of women seeking for health services from the government hospital and their partners who goes for Voluntary counseling and Testing has been reported.
