Behavior Change Strategy Sample Clauses

Behavior Change Strategy. There were some preliminary successes with behavior change mobilization. These included significantly increasing demand for both insecticide-treated bednets and VCT/PMTCT and increased promotion for ANC and institutional deliveries by trained TBAs. However, the general BCC strategy seemed to start with a list of information and activities to promote, rather than taking a more rigorous approach starting with the desired behaviors and defining essential information and target groups from there. As a result, project energy was dispersed over a variety of target groups (teachers, anti-AIDS clubs, PLWAs, TBAs, animators, traditional healers, and health center providers) and was concerned with providing them a wide range of information. Neither the information nor the target groups were necessarily focused on the most efficient means to achieving the desired behavior change. As mentioned in the previous sections, the lack of message focus was particularly apparent for the MNH and nutrition interventions. Similarly, the work with the traditional healers, primary school teachers, and anti-AIDS clubs is probably not directly related to project outcomes, and contributes to a general lack of focus in project activities. With respect to health education materials, the project reproduced a flip chart for each of the interventions and distributed a full set to each health center. These were nicely done and appreciated by health center staff. A duplicate set was also provided to each health center for use in the communities. Unfortunately, they were big and bulky such that they were not transported to the field, and animators did not go out of their way to come get them. There were no other health education materials available at the community level for use by the animators or TBAs in their health education activities.
