Health COMpass Offers New Faith-Based SBCC Package

The Faith Effect is one of the resources in this month’s focus package.

The Health COMpass’s second Focus Package is now available, offering some outstanding examples of health communication tools and project materials that can be used with faith leaders and communities.

We recognize that most of the communities we work with in the world follow a faith tradition or traditions. While all of the Health COMpass resources are adaptable to any faith community, we have identified a collection of “Faith-Based Resources” – those that are specifically developed to work with faith leaders or within specific faith communities. These may be implemented by FBOs, NGOs or secular or non-secular service providers. We invite feedback and comments and ask you to help us provide you with the social and behavior change communication (SBCC) resources that will help you do the best work possible.

This package is just a selection of faith-based materials from the Health COMpass, not a comprehensive list, so you are welcome to search for more by going to the site’s Filtered Search page and typing “faith-based” in the search box. Right now, we have more than 50 materials to browse through. And keep checking back  – we add new materials to the Health COMpass every day.

To stay up to date on the latest additions to the Health COMpass, please register. Feel free to contribute your own faith-based resources as well.
