A evidence-based approach was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the training methods implemented. The evaluation included analysis of success factors, challenges, and participant responses, with local context as a key consideration in assessing the program's relevance. This study contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).
