Our partners in Vietnam, HelpAge International Vietnam Country Office, Thai Nguyen University of Medicine and Pharmacy, and the Health Strategy and Policy Institute, have collaboratively developed a set of communication materials to help people in communities learn about diabetes and hypertension. The materials include flyers and handbooks. Large-size posters were also produced for hanging at the community centres.

Flyers:

• Knowing hypertension: how to prevent and control
• Knowing diabetes: how to prevent and control

 

Handbooks:

• Handbook on hypertension
• Handbook on diabetes type 2
