In Nigeria, Breakthrough ACTION leveraged mobile technology to complement community-level and media interventions, strengthening health-seeking behaviors. The project used mobile technology to share health messaging, disseminate mobile reminders to community members, and as a tool for digital learning. These efforts reinforced key health messages and provided platforms for continuous engagement, contributing to improved health outcomes. Three learning briefs describe the approaches and lessons learned. They are helpful for those interested in leveraging mobile technology in their social and behavior change programming.
