Social Behaviour Change Communication for Infant and Young Child Feeding in Chiang Mai

培训项目概述

Infant and young child feeding practices require systematic social behaviour change communication to transform community nutritional outcomes. This intensive four-day professional course in Chiang Mai equips practitioners with technical methods to design, implement, and monitor high-impact communication strategies. Participants examine evidence-based infant feeding guidelines and maternal dietary standards, translating global technical recommendations into practical, community-centred initiatives. The curriculum links behaviour change theory directly to field-level operational contexts, enabling professionals to address underlying cultural, economic, and social barriers to optimal infant and young child nutrition.

Delegates master structured communication approaches to promote early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding, and timely, adequate, and safe complementary feeding. The programme reviews barrier analysis, audience segmentation, and counselling methodologies aligned with international frameworks. Participants gain hands-on experience in formulating multi-channel communication campaigns that effectively target mothers, fathers, grandmothers, and community leaders. By applying proven interpersonal communication and community mobilisation models, practitioners learn to foster household-level decision-making that prioritises maternal nutrition, diverse local diets, and optimal care practices for children under two years of age.

The training establishes robust monitoring, evaluation, and learning protocols to track behavioural shifts over time. Participants explore tools for measuring message recall, counselling quality, household dietary diversity, and sustained adoption of recommended feeding behaviours. Working through context-specific scenarios, delegates formulate practical action plans that integrate behaviour change interventions into wider public health delivery channels. Upon completion, participants possess the operational capacities required to lead, coordinate, and supervise nutrition communication activities that contribute directly to the reduction of child stunting and wasting across vulnerable communities.

Public health programmes and development initiatives are increasingly combining social transfers with behaviour change communication to maximise nutritional improvements for mothers and young children. This course directly addresses the nutrition education and behaviour change components vital for the Maternal and Child Cash Transfers for Improved Nutrition Project and comparable operations funded by development institutions. For practitioners in Southeast Asia, particularly those operating in Myanmar, structured communication interventions are essential to ensure that household resources translate effectively into improved maternal dietary diversity, exclusive breastfeeding, and adequate complementary feeding practices.

Delivered by Risalat Consultants International in Chiang Mai, Thailand, it combines expert-led sessions, real cases and group work, so that participants can apply what they learn in their own institution.
