Monitoring and Evaluating Social and Behavior Change Approaches [Course]/Suivi et l’évaluation des approches de changement social et de comportement [Cours]

This course aims to support SBC programs by explaining how they can develop a robust theory-driven monitoring & evaluation (M&E) plan that provides evidence which can strengthen implementation and support program evaluation. It comprises three short instructional videos that last between 10 and 15 minutes. A How-to Brief which students can print for easy reference accompanies the videos.

Breakthrough RESEARCH designed this course for program managers and mid-level professionals who are not trained as researchers but need to understand both the rationale for using a theory-based approach to designing programs and the measurement processes involved. The course will help managers support research and M&E staff and ensure they have programmatic data required to track results over time and at program completion. While the steps presented include examples specific to family planning programs, they can be used for any SBC program.

Suivi et l’évaluation des approches de changement social et de comportement [Cours]

Ce cours vise à soutenir les programmes de CSC en expliquant comment ils peuvent développer un plan de suivi et d’évaluation (S&E) solide, basé sur la théorie, qui fournit des preuves pouvant renforcer la mise en œuvre et soutenir l’évaluation du programme. Il comprend trois courtes vidéos didactiques d’une durée de 10 à 15 minutes. Les vidéos sont accompagnées d’un guide pratique que les étudiants peuvent imprimer pour s’y référer facilement.

Breakthrough RESEARCH a développé ce cours pour les gestionnaires de programmes et les professionnels de niveau intermédiaire qui n’ont pas de formation de chercheur mais qui ont besoin de comprendre à la fois la raison d’être de l’utilisation d’une approche basée sur la théorie pour concevoir des programmes et les processus de mesure impliqués. Le cours aidera les gestionnaires à soutenir le personnel de recherche et de S&E et à s’assurer qu’ils disposent des données programmatiques nécessaires pour suivre les résultats dans le temps et à la fin du programme. Bien que les étapes présentées comprennent des exemples spécifiques aux programmes de planification familiale, elles peuvent être utilisées pour tout programme du CSC.

Introduction to Behavioral Economics [Course]/Introduction à l’économie comportementale [Cours]

Every day, billions of people make trillions of decisions, at work, at home, and everywhere else. Behavioral economics (BE) is the study of the decisions and actions we make as human beings. This online, self-guided course will introduce you to BE, which includes behavioral biases and ways to apply behavioral design to family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH). BE teaches us that the interplay between context and psychological features of humans can have a surprisingly powerful effect on our behavior. Insights from behavioral analysis allow us to anticipate and account for these inconsistencies in human behavior when designing products, programs, and policies in public and reproductive health and beyond. The sessions in this course consist of instructional videos and engaging tasks that you can complete to deepen your understanding of the application of behavioral economics.

Introduction à l’économie comportementale [Cours]

Chaque jour, des milliards de personnes prennent des billions de décisions, au travail, à la maison et partout ailleurs. L’économie comportementale (EC) est l’étude des décisions et des actions que nous prenons en tant qu’êtres humains. Ce cours en ligne, auto-guidé vous présentera l’EC, qui comprend les biais comportementaux et les moyens d’appliquer la conception comportementale à la planification familiale et à la santé reproductive (PF/SR). L’analyse comportementale nous apprend que l’interaction entre le contexte et les caractéristiques psychologiques des êtres humains peut avoir un effet étonnamment puissant sur notre comportement. Les enseignements de l’analyse comportementale nous permettent d’anticiper et de prendre en compte ces incohérences dans le comportement humain lors de la conception de produits, de programmes et de politiques dans le domaine de la santé publique et de la santé génésique et au-delà. Les sessions de ce cours consistent en des vidéos pédagogiques et des tâches engageantes que vous pouvez accomplir pour approfondir votre compréhension de l’application de l’économie comportementale.

Introduction to Social and Behavior Change [Course] / Introduction au Changement Social et de Comportement [Cours]

Les solutions aux défis mondiaux sans précédent et en constante évolution nécessitent de la créativité, une expertise technique, et de l’innovation pour parvenir à un changement significatif et durable. C’est pourquoi le changement social et de comportement (CSC) n’a jamais été aussi important. Le CSC est un processus systématique et intentionnel qui vise à comprendre et à faciliter le changement des comportements ainsi que des normes sociales et des déterminants environnementaux qui les façonnent. Les activités et les interventions de CSC reposent sur de nombreux éléments différents, notamment la communication pour le changement social et de comportement (CCSC), la mobilisation communautaire, le marketing, le plaidoyer, l’économie comportementale, la conception centrée sur l’humain, la psychologie sociale, et multiples théories et modèles.

Breakthrough ACTION a créé ce cours en ligne pour les gestionnaires de programmes et les professionnels. À l’aide de vidéos d’instruction autoguidées et de quiz de vérification des connaissances, ce cours d’introduction couvre l’évolution du SBC, la manière dont les activités de CSC peuvent améliorer l’efficacité des programmes, et les méthodes et outils principaux de CSC. Les participants découvriront le Processus-P et le diagramme de flux de CSC, ainsi que les considérations relatives à l’intégration du genre dans la programmation de CSC.

Le contenu du cours n’est actuellement disponible qu’en français. Visitez SBC Learning Central pour d’autres de cours en anglais et en français.

Introduction to Social and Behavior Change [Course]

Solutions to the world’s unprecedented and ever-changing challenges require creativity, technical expertise, and innovation to achieve significant and sustainable change. That’s why social and behavior change (SBC) has never been more relevant. SBC is a systematic and intentional process that aims to understand and facilitate change in behaviors, as well as in the social norms and environmental determinants that shape them. SBC activities and interventions are based on numerous different elements, including social and behavior change communication (SBCC), community mobilization, marketing, advocacy, behavioral economics, human-centered design, social psychology, and multiple theories and models.

Breakthrough ACTION created this course for program managers and professionals. Using self-guided instructional videos and knowledge check quizzes, this introductory course covers the evolution of SBC, how SBC activities can enhance program effectiveness, and primary SBC methods and tools. Participants will learn about the P-Process and SBC Flow Chart, as well as considerations for integrating gender in SBC programming.

This course is currently only available in French. Visit SBC Learning Central for additional courses in English and French, including Social and Behavior Change 101: An Introduction (English).

The course is structured around the three steps of the SBC Flow Chart developed by Breakthrough ACTION: (1) Define, (2) Design and Test, and (3) Apply. With clear examples and short exercises, this course illustrates the importance of strategically designing SBC programs for FP/RH, including monitoring and evaluation. Allowing for pauses to complete three short exercises, this course is two hours long.
