Addis Ababa suburbs face significant challenges in tuberculosis (TB) prevention due to high TB incidence rates and limited healthcare resources. A mixed-methods approach was employed, including pre- and post-training assessments for CHWs and qualitative interviews to gauge user satisfaction and practical application of learned strategies. Users showed a significant improvement in knowledge about TB prevention (p<0. 05) with an average increase of 23% in correct responses on post-training tests, indicating enhanced understanding and potential better compliance. Training CHWs on TB prevention strategies led to improved user knowledge and could potentially enhance community-level TB control efforts. Further research should explore the long-term impact of such training programmes and identify best practices for sustaining user engagement with these interventions.
