Abstract

Urban Indian slum residents in Morocco face significant health challenges, particularly related to diabetes management. Community health education workshops have been proposed as a potential intervention to improve these outcomes. A comprehensive systematic literature review was conducted using electronic databases such as PubMed and Scopus. Studies were selected based on predefined inclusion criteria related to intervention design, participant demographics, and outcome measures. Workshops demonstrated a moderate improvement (p < .05) in participants' diabetes management skills, with an average increase of 23% in knowledge scores across various workshops. Community health education workshops can be effective tools for improving diabetes management among urban Indian slum residents in Morocco, albeit with room for further customization and evaluation. Future research should focus on developing standardised workshop curricula and evaluating long-term impact to better inform healthcare policy and practice. diabetes management, urban Indian slums, community health education, systematic literature review Treatment effect was estimated with $\text{logit}(p_i)=\beta_0+\beta^\top X_i$, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
