Participatory Learning Program for Zoonotic Disease Prevention (SHIELD-Z)

Leaders

• Woottichai Khamduang, PhD Assistant Professor, Faculty of Associated Medical Sciences, Chiang Mai University


• Dr. Dorothée Missé (IRD Research Director, coordinator of IJL PRESTO)

Background and Rationale

Zoonotic diseases are a public health issue commonly encountered in everyday life. This project was developed to promote accurate knowledge and understanding of zoonotic diseases among primary school students. The underlying concept is that if children are given correct knowledge, they can effectively share it with their parents. Parents tend to be receptive to what their children tell them, and children are naturally eager to talk about what they learned each day. This approach is used to spread knowledge from school to the community.

Primary Objectives

• To transfer knowledge and organize practical learning activities on zoonotic diseases commonly encountered in daily life.
• To enable students to pass on their knowledge to parents and raise awareness of these diseases at the family level.
• To develop and test a continuous active-learning model for further application in the broader education system.
