Community Directed Interventions (CDI)

Community Directed Interventions (CDI) are strategies where community members actively participate in planning, delivering, and managing health programs. This approach empowers local populations to take ownership of healthcare initiatives, such as distributing medicines or educating peers about health issues. By involving communities directly, CDI ensures that interventions are culturally appropriate, more accepted, and sustainable over time. It leverages local knowledge and resources, leading to more effective and efficient health services that meet the specific needs of the community.
