Webinar: Urban Adolescent SRH SBCC Implementation Kit Launch

October 21, 2015 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am

Join the Health Communication Capacity Collaborative (HC3) on Wednesday, October 21 at 9 a.m. EDT for a webinar to learn about HC3’s newest resource — the Urban Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health Social and Behavior Change Communication Implementation Kit (I-Kit).

The I-Kit is designed to help program managers design and implement sound social and behavior change communication (SBCC) sexual and reproductive health (SRH) programs for 10 to 19 year-olds living in urban areas. While the I-Kit was written with the vast Sub-Saharan Africa context in mind, it is meant to be adaptable according to any country, city and project. The I-Kit highlights seven “Essential Elements” of SRH SBCC programs for urban adolescents, and guides users through each Element with explanatory text, interactive worksheets and activities, and engaging visuals. The I-Kit also provides definitions of SRH, SBCC and adolescence as a life stage to clearly orient users to the I-Kit’s content, and presents a fictional cast of characters in an imagined city to help demonstrate the I-Kit’s principles.

Please join in to learn about the I-Kit and its online version and to ask the authors, “How can this I-Kit help me in my work?”
