Introduction and Activities

BIKASH Nepal aims at developing human resources required to serve people living with severe forms of ailment affecting physical, mental and socio-economic aspects of human life.

 

BIKASH exists to develop high standard skills and knowledge of service providers involved in providing appropriate health care and rehabilitation services to people living with leprosy, disability, AIDS and tuberculosis.


After BIKASH Nepal became independent from INF in 2005, it became the only training provider to support the government’s leprosy elimination programme in the whole of western region of Nepal. The training centre has been providing comprehensive leprosy training to basic health services (BHS) staff working in peripheral health units. A further in-service training on prevention of disability is given to improve POD services at peripheral health units. Beside this BIKASH provides intensified leprosy training to Medical Doctors, Public Health Officers and District TB/Leprosy Officers to improve referral service, supervision and monitoring skills at district level. These training activities funded by German Leprosy and TB Relief Association.

 

BIKASH also provides HIV/AIDS training to BHS and NGO staff working in the vulnerable districts like Kaski, Rupandehi, Kapilvastu and Nawalparasi and looking for expanding to other districts in need. They are given a well designed comprehensive training and then refresher course is also offered to selected staff. Basic counselling skills and care & support training is also organised based on need. Community and Home Based Care training to people living with HIV/AIDS and their caretaking family members was organised and is also an area of our interest. In 2009 we are organising a Voluntary Counselling and Testing (VCT) training for the first time targeting at BHS and NGO staff.

 

BIKASH is involved in supporting National Tuberculosis Programme through providing training at grass root level health workers and volunteers since 2008. The training aims at improving case finding and case holding activities in an area with low performance. The training is done in close cooperation with Western Regional Health Directorate, Pokhara.

 

BIKASH Training Centre runs 4 international courses every year, they are:

1: Rehabilitation and Prevention of Disability (RPOD) - 2 week

2: Community Based Rehabilitation (CBR) - 2 weeks

3: Training and Communication Skills - 2 weeks

4: Leprosy Course for Medical Doctors - 1 week

 

People from different parts of the world participate in these international courses on pay basis and the courses are well received by the participants. There are various other training courses organised at national level aiming at generating local income. BIKASH has an ideal training venue and the facilities such as conference hall, hostel and guesthouse, audio-visual materials/equipment available here is well accepted and are hired out to other organisations to generate local income.
