HERNANDEZ, Marta et al. Perception, knowledge and attitudes from different faith based organizations about their participation in the design and postulation of the 2015 district of Barranquilla (Colombia) Territorial Health Plan. Salud, Barranquilla [online]. 2015, vol.31, n.2, pp.403-414. ISSN 0120-5552.
A review of the Barranquilla Territorial Health Plan shows no evidence of involvement of faith based organizations (FBOs) in its design and implementation, even though they are community based organizations that see themselves as knowledgeable of the public health situation in their communities, and as promoters of actions aimed at improving the health of the community they serve. Therefore, the Universidad Del Norte Public Health Master students (sixth cohort) and their professor decided to deliver the following reflection in order to motivate the various government agencies to examine their Territorial Health Plan implementation, particularly the community-based organizations participation component. In addition, we hope to motivate faith-based organizations to examine and recognize the importance of their participation in the working groups convened by the public sector, in order to achieve an integration aiming to better coordinate activities associated with the promotion, planning, implementation and sustainability of Public Health projects in the District of Barranquilla.
