A #mascot can "do wonders" in Social Behaviour Change Communication.
Lali - a fun, relatable mascot- was introduced by @NutritionIntl to bust the myths and misconceptions against the Double Fortified Salt (DFS) product.
A twitter thread 🧵
Lali character was designed collaboratively by community members during strategy development for promotion & adoption of Vanya Plus Double Fortified Salt (DFS) Project in #MadhyaPradesh.
This proved to be an effective mitigation strategy. #SBCCWorks
Lali proved to be an effective way of mitigating any doubts held about the product's value or effectiveness.
With her vibrant personality and cheerful disposition, she quickly became popular among users who felt connected with this lovable figure.
"World’s largest vaccine drive has made one thing quite clear – that neither vaccines nor the end of this pandemic as a public health emergency will come about from infrastructure alone- Cynthia Mccaffrey, @UNICEFIndiaRep at #CSBC workshop for universities #BehaviourChange

“These are not material problems – they are equally social and behavioural change issues, and we can only move the needle through advocacy, timely and accurate messaging, and the promotion of #COVID-appropriate and lifesaving behaviours,’ Cynthia Mccaffrey, @UNICEFIndiaRep#CSBC
“To understand people better, we need behavioural assessments, social listening, human-centred design, choice architecture, social accountability mechanisms, participation in local governance, and programmes,” observed Cynthia Mccaffrey, @UNICEFIndiaRep at CSBC workshop #Delhi.

Grandparents are among the best storytellers. Building on this “#BaapiNaUwaat”(Tips of Grandmother), a unique social #behaviourchange campaign was launched in Dantewada in #Chattisgarh.
🧵on the program utilizing services of volunteer village grandmothers 👵.
Under this initiation, Bapis (Grandmothers)👵 were identified based on their influence in the community and volunteerism. 239 women above 45 years of age (one for each village) currently volunteer as Baapis. They gave useful tips on various topics related to child & mother care.
Baapi means Grandmother who connects with people on their personal goodwill, without the temptation of any monetary benefit. They are considered ideal people to be sought out not just by the pregnant woman but her family too, and thereby the community as a whole. #BehaviourChange
