Introduction
The Care Group (CG) approach is a community-based IYCF strategy for promoting behaviour change. A CG is composed of 10-15 community-based volunteers (also known as Mother Leaders) that have regular review sessions together with project staff for training and supervision.
A CG is different from typical mother’s groups i.e. IYCF support Group in that each Mother Leader is responsible for regularly meeting with 10-15 of her neighbours, sharing what she has learned and facilitating behaviour change at the household level.
In this regards flipcharts and lesson plans for the mother leaders will be developed with graphics that are context-specific.
Project Background
Working to Improve Nutrition in Northern Nigeria (WINNN) is a 6-year project funded by DFID, which started in September 2011. The overall objective of the project is to reduce mortality through decreasing the incidence and prevalence of under nutrition in Nigeria with focus on Jigawa, Katsina, Kebbi, Yobe and Zamfara States. The programme is implemented by a partnership that includes UNICEF, Save the Children and Action against Hunger (ACF).
The overall objective of the WINNN programme is to build the capacity of the state and LGAs to implement nutrition interventions as routine services through existing PHC structures and to use evidence-based advocacy to improve political commitment to and government funding for nutrition interventions.
