The rural community site of the Equi-INJURY Project in South Africa is the Ngqamakhwe Community. Ngqamakwe is located in the Amatole District Municipality of the Eastern Cape province in South Africa. The community has 33 villages in its locality. Centrally located is the Ngqamakhwe Community Health Centre that services 6 local clinics. The local language is isiXhosa. Lead post-doctoral researcher, Dr Ntombekhaya Tshabalala held a Community Advisory Board (CAB) meeting with local residents to ensure community perspectives are included in the design and delivery of the research. In this episode, we hear some of their views. Ms. Nowelile Mlibali, a CAB member and secretary of the Ngqamakhwe Community Health Center Board, highlighted the need to raise awareness about injury and injury care in the local communities. Furthermore, Mrs. Sindiswa Mpepho, a Ngqamakhwe resident, discussed involving the Community Health Centre Committee in disseminating information about the project and its objectives - to improve quality care for injured individuals in the community. We are committed to partnerships research and will continue to work with the CAB and local community throughout the programme.
