Why is it S.E.R.P’s concern? • Ill health - strongly correlated with poverty – both cause and effect • Health shocks drag people into poverty and keep them in poverty • Malnutrition prevents poor people from achieving their full potential – physically and mentally • S.H.G loans – bulk of small loans for health
What has been done till now? Why it did not work? Major Govt. interventions for nutrition: ICDS Coalition of Sustainable nutrition security in India says.. • ICDS: • Programmatic focus on supplementary nutrition. It is not an optimal nutrition intervention • No ownership of the community in planning, implementation and monitoring . • Weak implementation and monitoring
Why Community managed model promoted by S.E.R.P works? • Sustainable solutions emerge when institutions of poor develop solutions, own them and manage them • Solutions developed by women’s groups in collaboration with S.E.R.P, health, women and child welfare and rural development dept s • Holistic model – promotes livelihoods security, and, food and nutrition security
IKP health &Nutrition model: Aims • Improve partnerships between health facilities and the communities. • Increase appropriate and accessible health care and information through training of community health workers. • Promote key family practices critical for child health and nutrition by training and supporting peer support groups and conducting outreach education campaigns by training community resource persons • Involve other community institutions and champions to engage in health education and planning.
