1 - Any health education campaign against trachoma should include two phases. The first should be immediate, intensive and specifically directed against trachoma; the second should be of long-term duration and general in character. 2 - The initial phase should basically consist of: a) teaching the people the important aspects of the disease; b) convincing the families to apply for medicai examination and treatment, if necessary; c) securing close cooperation of sch<Jols. 3 - In the second phase ali the modern educational techniques which aim at obtaining active participation of the people in the solution of its own problems should be used. Among these, group and community organization is particularly useful. Due to the complexity of the second phase, it is recommended that it be initiated only if one can depend on specialized personnel.Downloads
