School Health Promotion
School Health Promotion: Case Studies from India offers evidence-based insights and recommendations to those engaged in addressing the social determinants of health at the school level. The book provides an overview of school health promotion and adolescent health in India, and presents case studies of four programmes: SHAPE, UDAAN, Drishti and Prayatna. Together, these programmes cover seven states of India, and are characterised by different types of human resource delivery, levels of engagement with the school and students, and systems for monitoring and supervision. The case studies provide valuable lessons for strengthening existing programmes and developing new approaches.The target audience includes education and health policy-makers, administrators, researchers and practitioners in government, academic institutions, funding agencies, non-governmental organisations and civil society.
Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health Programmes in India
Despite the existing plethora of knowledge and continuous efforts to identify synergies and integrate the interventions across the continuum of maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH), there is a lack of consensus on the best way forward to achieve the quickest reductions in maternal and child mortality rates in developing countries in a strategic and coordinated manner. This book fills the gap, and provides a strategic approach, process and tools for designing and implementing large-scale MNCH programmes that are covered by the health system. This strategic approach termed as 'programme science' embeds science into all phases of programme cycle to optimize results and resources in implementing large-scale MNCH programmes. The book argues, with examples from Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh, that programme science as an approach can significantly improve the MNCH services in developing countries.
