They conduct the information events either alone or in tandem with professionals from health and social services.
Local site coordinators organize the work on site and ensure the support and networking of MiMi mediators, specialists and health services.
The Ethno-Medical Center eV takes care of the teaching and campaign materials.
It provides verified campaign and teaching materials, such as guides and manuals, slide sets, PowerPoint presentations, evaluation tools, updates and translations.
The Bremen location has been part of the MiMi health initiative since September 2018.
The Bremen location has a pool of already trained mediators. Together with the "MiMis" who joined in a new training course in 2018, they inform the migrant communities in Bremen as multipliers.
They conduct information events in various organizations, institutions and groups such as refugee accommodations, mosque communities, language schools, churches, medical practices and other settings.
In this way, they work together to reduce information deficits and reach communities in Bremen that are particularly difficult to reach and often do not yet have sufficient German language skills.
Based on local needs and taking into account Bremen's state health priorities, the focus is on topics such as "immunization", "mental health", "maternal health" and "child health".
