Abstract:
|
The plan is an extract of key social mobilization related strategic objectives, activities and a set of indicators from the main BCI strategy document which NAC and the Ministry of Health and Population in collaboration with partners produced to address unsafe sex practices and inconsistent health seeking behaviours among Malawians. The social mobilization plan was developed in full realization that no positive behaviour change can take place without informed and active participation of the intended beneficiaries. The plan, therefore, guides implemented on what they should do to induce informed participation of intended audiences, how to mobilize people's capacities and energies and on how to increase their skills so that they are able to change their behaviours. The plan is for planners, project coordinators, social workers and managers in the ministries, government departments, NGOs, CBOs, DACCs, learning institutions and faith communities seeking to carry out interventions aimed at mobilizing communities and engage them in the fight against HIV/AIDS. It is for those whose interventions are aimed at calling for conscious and active participation of the intended beneficiaries in the promotion of SRH programmes including family planning. |
