Objectives • Enhance understanding of CAH • Develop plan of operationalising CAH in state in context of public hearing
Why this community acted? (Obj-1) • Household level factors • ASHA • Community cohesion • Service provider factors • Role of technology
Outputs towards public dialogue • 2 VHSNC sammellans (2010, 2011) • 1 Jan Samvad (2011)
What are some essential elements to arrange dialogue? (Obj-2) • Ready and field tested road-map • Cooperation from local government • SR’s 3 decades of track record of working with government and local community
Things we could not do… • Could not arrange more Jan samvads • Engaging local govt and community on sustained basis was difficult • Creating “ownership” of the VHSNC
