Not Every Fever is Malaria – Posters

This SBCC campaign in Tanzania was aimed at teaching parents and service providers that it is not correct to treat every child with a fever with malaria treatment, making the assumption that having a fever means that the patient has malaria. The campaign was aimed at educating the general public and the health community. Attached is one file with two posters, one for service providers and one for parents.

Nutrition Counseling Poster

Suaahara was a five year (2011-2016) project funded by USAID aimed to improve the nutritional status of women and children in 41 districts of Nepal. The project focused on improving health and nutrition behaviors at the household level through promotion of Essential Nutrition and Hygiene Actions (EN/HA), particularly Maternal, Infant and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN), and addressing other determinants of under-nutrition, such as availability of and access to food, hygiene, quality of health care, child spacing and socio-cultural factors including gender and marginalization.

Suaahara was implemented by a consortium of partner organizations led by Save the Children.

The SBCC strategy established an internal quality materials review and production system to ensure that all partners in the consortium had mutually reinforcing, quality materials developed, pretested, produced and disseminated to the end user.

The poster on counselling services on nutrition, hygiene, breastfeeding and care of child from the health service centers was developed and massively disseminated in all the health service centers, local NGOs, district offices and public places. This was also called a motivational poster as it was targeted for health facilities and to motivate health service providers to make them accountable in disseminating messages on nutrition for the health of women and children.

The idea of developing this wall poster for health service centers originated from field visits and meeting with service centers and service providers. It was found that counselling on nutrition was not a priority of health service providers. These motivational nutrition counseling posters were developed as a wall hanging with illustrations and are being developed to display in a public space of health service centers.

Pata Tohara (“Get Circumcised”) Posters

In 2011, the Tanzania Communication and Capacity Project, TCCP), along with JHPIEGO, designed a campaign to increase the rate of voluntary male medical circumcision (VMMC).

The project aimed at sharing the following messages about VMMC:

  • Relative advantage – why it is better than not beingvcircumcised
  • Compatibility – how VMMC fits with the lifestyles of each target audience, and is appropriate for both younger and older men
  • Complexity – that VMMC is easy and safe

TCCP developed a new “age-aware” communication strategy that divided the primary target audience into two groups: one for boys and young men aged 10-19 years, and another for men age 20-34.

The chosen creative concept focused on a call to action – Pata Tohara (“Get Circumcised”), and highlighted the key benefits found to be most appealing to target audience members: circumcision provides protection and enhances

cleanliness.

The attached posters were produced as part of the campaign.
