CU Peru (Comunidades Unidas Peru) is a non-profit organization comprised of health professionals and students that supports health workers in the Peruvian Amazon in improving the health of their communities.
CU Peru delivers health care training to community health workers who have little formal health care education. These rural health workers live in villages of 100-300 people along the Napo and Amazon Rivers in northeast Peru. These villages are among the poorest and most isolated in Peru, located many hours from trained professionals at official health care facilities. Our model combines multi-day training workshops with individualized, one-on-one instruction with health workers in their villages. Our curriculum, integrates ideas from WHO and Peruvian Ministry of Health training materials in collaboration with local health officials and experts in the field. We emphasize early recognition of warning signs, basic clinical assessment, first aid skills and preventative health promotion.
