| |
The Population Foundation of
India, in association with the Centre for Media Studies (CMS),
New Delhi implemented a three-year training programme on ‘Management-cum-Behavioural
Change Communication’ with the objectives of enhancing
conceptual understanding and developing skills of the NGO
personnel for effective communication and operational management;
understanding the management aspects of RCH projects and
increasing efficiency in project management and implementation
with feedback, need assessment and area specific analysis. |
| |
| The project activities
had been initiated in the year 2002. A database of NGOs working
in and around the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi
was developed. A need assessment survey was conducted at two
levels – for
field level workers and for middle-level managers of NGOs working
in and around Delhi on Reproductive and Child Health and Family
Planning issues before finalization of the course curriculum.
In the first two years, CMS organized training programmes with
PFI for middle and senior level officials of NGOs. The Centre
for Media Studies conducted twelve training programmes on Behavioral
Change Communication and trained two hundred and five personnel
from various NGOs serving the communities in the National Capital
Territory of Delhi, on RCH related issues. Thirty six days
of training programmes have been conducted on various management
issues for middle/senior level managers of Delhi based NGOs.
Some of the topics covered on the management training were: (i)
financial management, (ii) fund raising, (iii) effective communication,
(iv) project management, (v) human resource, and (vi) financial
management. |
| |
| A three day exclusive training programme on
Behaviour Change Communication in the context of RCH programmes
was organized for CASP-PLAN development workers and para medical
officials. The objective of the training programme was to enhance
the skills, facilitate learning and understand the fundamentals
of Behaviour Change Communication, Counselling and Reproductive
and Child Health. |
| |
| Concurrent evaluation, taking a sample of twenty-five
participants from fifteen NGOs who attended BCC and management
training programmes, has been conducted. The purpose of conducting
the concurrent evaluation was to understand how the participants
have been implementing their learning skills in their projects
and designing paid training programmes according to the needs
during the final year of the project. A questionnaire, for
the evaluation, was designed, in consultation with the monitoring
and evaluation team of PFI. |
