Communication for Health Ethiopia
This project, managed by CCP and JSI, 2015-2020, was designed to contribute to the adoption of healthy behaviors by Ethiopians in four regions (Amhara, Oromia, SNNPR, and Tigray) and build capacity at national, regional, and sub-regional levels to design, implement, and evaluate effective social and behavior change communication (SBCC) programs and interventions.
It had three result areas/objectives:
- Public sector health systems and coordination for SBCC strengthened
- SBCC design and implementation strengthened
- Improved use of data for decision making in SBCC
Communication for Health worked across multiple health areas, including reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH); malaria; tuberculosis (TB); water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH); prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV (PMTCT); and nutrition. One of the key features of Communication for Health was an integrated campaign platform (ICP) which provided a trusted, recognizable, and credible platform to introduce or build on communication interventions.
