This training of master trainers focused on guiding each trainee on how to develop a plan to conduct Teach-VIP trainings in their own region using the WHO Teach-VIP training materials. Participants were also encouraged to apply for the MENTOR-VIP programme which is an opportunity to network with global injury prevention experts.
