1. Background:
Scientifically it is proved that practice of key health behaviours by parents and caregivers plays vital role in survival and development of children. Effective Social and Behaviour Change Communication (SBCC) interventions help to promote safe mother and childcare practices among parents and caregivers and contribute to improving health indicators. SBC has been recognized as an important component of National Health Mission both at central and state levels. Specific programmatic and budgetary allocations have been made in PIPs to implement SBC Interventions.
Although department of health and family welfare has included specific budget for SBC in state PIP, due to lack of capacity to plan and implement SBC interventions at state and district levels, these interventions are not being planned and implemented properly. As per RWP discussions department of health and IEC cell requested UN ORGANISATION to provide technical support to strengthen capacities of state and district level officials for effective planning, implementation and monitoring of SBC activities. The proposed consultant will provide technical support for specific PIP activities and capacity building of government and NGOs on SBC.
