Batela Lobi Na Yo, meaning “Protect Your Future” in the language of Lingala, the local language in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The campaign was designed to inspire and inform young people on how to own their sexual health, and to provide them with new information that highlighted the existence—and efficacy—of contraception.
The program team used human-centered design to help them create messages and materials to reach adolescents. They learned that girls love expressing themselves and sharing their creativity with their peers; through that insight, the four “Power Poses” were born. Each represents a contraceptive method—condoms, injection, IUDs, and implants—with a particular stance that subtly references how and where these methods are used. The imagery was designed to represent “a girl like me,” so the team photographed local girls, not models, in specific stances as a means to further a personal connection to their accessibility and potential.
The campaign had national coverage, and of those reached, 20,000 teens had one-on-one conversations (many for the first time) about contraception. In terms of conversion, of the 5,000 teens that visited a clinic after engaging with the campaign, 75% adopted a contraceptive method which will hopefully lead to a reduction in unplanned pregnancies in Kinshasa.

B’more for Healthy Babies was launched in response to the high infant mortality rate (IMR) in Baltimore City – historically one of the worst in the nation. The initiative works through more than 100 partner agencies to implement a comprehensive program of improved policy, increased access to services and behavior change in communities and families.
Since this initiative was formally launched in 2010, the IMR has dropped consistently. In 2012, the rate reached a significant milestone – 9.7 deaths per 1,000 live births, a record low for Baltimore City. The disparity between the IMR for white and black infants has dropped by 40%. CCP has been instrumental in developing citywide campaigns on safe sleep practices for infants, smoke-free environments, and family planning. Highlights include the production of a powerful SLEEP SAFE video that is shown to all women delivering at a birthing hospital – a key decision making point for adopting safe sleep practices.
There were several health issues for which CCP worked with other partners to produce SBCC materials: safe sleeping, no-smoking near babies or pregnant women, and infant health.
These posters were part of the campaign on safe sleep.
