Composed of a nurse, social worker, paramedical workers and doctor the MHT visits the project villages periodically to provide support and facilitate development activities. The MHT serves as the liaison between village and health centre. New project villages are visited regularly while growing self-sufficiency, capacity and leadership within the older villages eliminate the need for frequent follow-ups and consultation.

During regular morning visits, families are seen together with the village health worker and members of the various Community-Based Organizations (CBOs). Specific health and socioeconomic issues are dealt with. Problems needing solution beyond the team’s level are referred to the health centre. In the evenings, the team visits villages and holds various meetings of the different community groups to discuss relevant issues.
