Focus Groups are groups of voluntary candidates whom are trained in order to enable them to instruct to the other villagers the most important principles of daily hygiene and help them with nutritional follow-up.

Started in 2003, the training is done by Indian doctors, members of Partage dans le Monde Pondicherry and involve currently around twenty voluntary trainees.

The awareness of young women participating in these groups is raised around the questions which particularly concern them : sexually transmitted diseases, contraception, pregnancy, breast feeding of mothers, growth and development of children, the importance of vaccination.
