In Nepal, Breakthrough ACTION developed the Social and Behavior Change Palika Package to support the development, advocacy, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of social and behavior change (SBC) capacity efforts for local-level health personnel and elected bodies.
The capacity strengthening materials include:
- Introduction to SBC for health
- Rationale and process for including SBC in annual planning efforts
- How to include and implement SBC for health activities in local-level annual plans
Using the Palika Package provides the following benefits:
- SBC programs will be formulated based on evidence.
- The rural and urban municipality Social Development sections will be clear about their roles and responsibilities during the annual planning process.
- SBC activities for health will be developed with adequate budgets and in consultation with stakeholders.
- The capacity to formulate, implement, monitor, and evaluate SBC activities for health will be strengthened.
