PRAGYA- A MULTISECTORAL APPROACH TO GENDER TO IMPROVE FAMILY PLANNING/ REPRODUCTIVE
HEALTH PROJECT
Pathfinder International has been working in Bihar on sexual and reproductive health.
Their project - PRACHAR has worked to improve the health of the women and girls,
and adolescents. They have involved adolescents, young women, men, their parents
and influential members of the society as the target groups. The overall aim of
this study was to develop an understanding of the gendered approach under PRACHAR
project phase I and II. The specific objectives were to: (i) review the PRACHAR
reports to understand the gender multi-sectoral factors; (ii) explore multi-sectoral
linkages to improve behavioral outcomes; (iii) examine the processes that were implemented/
considered as strengths; and (iv) recommend improvement/ refinement of existing
interventions that lack
 gender dimensions for youth.
Under this qualitative study, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were used to gather
the information that was required and the sample included adolescent girls and boys
who demonstrated positive behavior change and those who did not demonstrate any
change in behaviour, parents (both mothers and fathers) of adolescents with positive
and negative behavior changes, trainers in PRACHAR, community influencers and change
agents (both men and women). The data collection tools included FGD guidelines for
each category of respondents, observation sheet, and demographic profile. The proposal
and the FGD guides were presented before to the Ethical Review Committee of IIHMR
and suggestions of the committee were incorporated before its actual implementation.
A total of 21 FGDs were conducted in July 2010 followed by their transcription and
translation. Analysis was done by reviewing and extracting content from transcripts
using the software package NVIVO Version 8.
The findings of the study revealed that participants were well informed regarding
the benefits of further education as most of them mentioned educating their sons
as well as daughters and equal importance was being given to both of them. Family
size had reduced, as mentioned by our respondents most of whom preferred to have
two children. Government’s support has been substantial in providing incentives
to those who are underprivileged. PRACHAR’s contribution towards the change was
perceived as significant and could not be neglected. There has certainly been an
improvement but also a need for regular and follow-up training to aid in the desired
behaviour change was felt. Government is providing support to the deprived but some
sections of the society are still neglected
 and there is need to shift the focus
on them. People are aware of the legal age for marriage but early marriage still
takes place, dowry being the most commonly cited reason. It is interesting to note
that dowry is associated with more educated as well as less educated girls. There
is a need to enforce the laws and strict monitoring is required for this. Since
guardians are predominantly the decision makers at home; even they should be trained
and made aware of the sensitive issues. The study team recommended that:
- Inclusion of the deprived and the socially excluded as the target group
- Capacity building on gender issues and revision of the existing module accordingly
- Capacity building of parents (fathers and mothers) and teachers (men and women)
- Mobilising communities to eliminate the harmful practices such as early marriage
and dowry
- Providing girls with viable alternatives to early marriage
- Enforcing existing laws on the age at marriage
- Considering gender based violence as a public health issue
COUNTING THE GIRLS– MOBILIZING CIVIL SOCIETY FOR ENSURING BIRTH REGISTRATION OF
GIRL CHILDREN
Birth Registration and the issuance of a birth certificate is the first legal acknowledgement
of a child’s existence by the State . Article 7 of the UN Conventions on the right
of child states that "The child shall be registered immediately after birth and
shall have the right from birth to a name (and) the right to acquire a nationality."
Two decades after India became a signatory to the UN Convention on the Rights of
Child, more than 9.3 million children every year are still denied their right to
an identity. An unregistered child is in danger of being denied the right to an
official identity, a recognized name and a nationality. With no document to prove
how old they are – or even who they are – they are likely to join the millions facing
discrimination and lack of access to basic services such as health and education.
The current project will focus on the poor and vulnerable children especially the
girl child of the deprived sections of society, to get identification through birth
registration. Birth registration refers not only to registration but also to receiving
the birth certificate. The children below 10 years of age will be covered for birth
registration under the National Campaign. The project will also try to link issues
of child rights violation with birth registration and certification. The previous
experience has shown that less number of girls are registered and through this project
will try to explore and address the reasons for the same.
IIHMR has been participating actively in conducting major health related surveys,
RCH surveys, RCH survey for Rajasthan, Haryana and Punjab, adolescent health, gender
gap in health staus, RTI/STIs in India and violence against Gender are some of the
priority areas identified for research. Gradually more efforts are being made towards
working in the direction of Gender empowerment and rights issues and this is reflected
in the Institute's activities.
1.1 "Gender's Rights to Life Project" is initiated by the Columbia University (CU)
and is being implemented by United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and GoR to contribute
to the realisation of Gender's rights to life and to the highest attainable standard
of health. It aims to reduce maternal death and disability in a sustainable manner
in three districts of Rajsthan: Jhalawar, Baran and Dholpur. A needs assessment
study was conducted by IIHMR in three districts. It has been observed that EmOC
services were poor in the districts. Then the institute, as a Technical Support
Unit operationalised the project in the districts. Through the project important
infrastructural inputs are made to ensure adequate EmOC services at the district
hospital level. At the same time organisational transformation is sought through
the use of appreciative inquiry methodology. Appreciative Inquiry worksops and its
documentation is done with technical support of IIHMR.
1.2 A 17-month study was conducted by the Institute on " Men's Perspective on Domestic
Violence Against Gender" supported by ICRW with the following objectives:
- Understand violence in the domestic sphere
- Examine the link between violence and masculinity
- Study the process of social construct, with special reference to socio- culturalcontext,
in male identity formation vis-à-vis sexuality
- ascertain the community's response to violence in the domestic sphere
- assess awareness level of men about legal issues in violence against Gender
1.3 Aapni Yojna
An Integrated Water supply, Sanitation and Health Programme is implemented
in three districts of Rajasthan: Hanumangarh, Churu and Jhunjhunu to improve the
health status and living conditions of the target population. The Community Participation
Unit (CPU) has been formed by consortium of five leading NGOs with IIHMR as a nodal
agency. Gender's participation in the project is a cross-sectoral component and
considerably increasing. Gender's-, Self-Help -, User-and other groups serve as
the platforms for Gender's decision-making and are now multiplying in all regions
where CPU is actively involved. Female stakeholders take up responsibilities related
to water, sanitation and health at Water and Health Committees (WHCs),
Pani Panchayats, User groups, etc., at the Mohalls and village level. |

2. Documentation and Dissemination |
The perspectives and experiences of Gender on health issues, successful Gender's
health interventions and gender sensitive programme strategies are the focus of
documentation efforts.
2.1 Case Study
The case study of Child in Need Institute (CINI), West Bengal, namely
"RCH Initiatives of Child in Need Institute, 24 Paraganas (S), West Benagal" was
developed under the project. For this activity, an exploratory trip was made to
the organisations. Experiences of moving from a maternal and child health programme
to a comprehensive rural health programme were recorded. This is an ongoing activity.
Hindi adaptation of this case study and other published case studies is in process.
The case studies, developed under the project, are shared with the partner organizations.
The studies are also used for teaching in various academic programmes.
2.2 Pragya series: partnership in Gender's empowerment
It is an effort to calibrate
the performance of our partner NGOs who are venturing into health sector. The Pragya
series is published to disseminate the information on the strategies adopted by
the partner NGOs to implement various projects for the well-being of the community
particularly Gender and children.
2.3 Other documents developed under the resource centre are:
Set of references:
The centre has compiled set of references on "Gender and HIV/AIDS", "Mental Health
among Indian Gender". "Gender and RCH Module" is compiled as an aid for the grassroots
level health workers. It focuses on development stages of a child to an adult man/
woman. It also describes the biological and social differences of a man and woman
and gender empowerment. The module is pictorial and can be used by grassroots level
workers, with low educational qualification.
A three-day gender training module is developed for the Post Graduate Diploma in
Health and Hospital Management (PGDHM) course focusing on gender and health issues.
A one-day gender training module for training of NGO health professionals and other
programme managers is also developed. It is being used extensively for mainstreaming
gender in the ongoing Management Development Programmes of the Institute. "Towards
Empowering Gender" is a compilation of various capacity building activities conducted
under the project "Resource and Training Centre on Gender's Health, Empowerment
and Rights" supported by the Ford Foundation.
2.4 A dissemination-cum-experience workshop was organized with the development practitioners
(on reporductive health in gender perspectives) of Jaipur on August 11, 2000 at
IIHMR. The objectives of the workshop were:
Learning from the participants' experiences on Gender empowerment, rights and health
Sharing the activities of the Ford Foundation supported Resource and Training Centre
on Gender's Health, Empowerment and Rights Project. Identifying areas of further
collaboration with the participants

3. Training Programmes |
|
Mainstreaming Gender in State and District Health Plans and
Program Interventions in Rajasthan
April 2010
To build gender as an important component of training programmes for health managers
and researchers of public and private sectors, IIHMR has been organising periodic
short-term programmes for different levels and categories of personnel.
3.1 Technical Training on Gender's Health
All the training programmes are planned
in such a way that one can translate learning into action. These are:
- Group as well
as individual learning
- Learning is co-opertaive and collaborative
- Motivation is
the key
- Relevance of learning experiences should be clear to the learners
- Feedback
to the learner is important
3.1.1 "Clinical Workshop" (Technical Training on Gender's Health) was organised
June 5-11, 2000 with the following objectives:
- to build a gender sensitive perspective on Comprehensive Gender's Health
- to orient participants on the clinical aspects of Gender's health and especially
reproductive health in a life cycle approach
- to expose the participants in various laboratory procedures
3.1.2 Perspective Building Workshop
A five-day workshop on Perspective Building was organised (March 15-19, 1999) to
develop understanding of the partner organisations on Gender's health (based on
experiences of Gender and Health - WAH) and various factors affecting it, existing
health care system, traditional health practices, quality of care and gender sensitivity.
Gender and Health (WAH) programmes map out the dynamic mix and inter-play of factors
which underlie Gender's precarious health situation - modern and traditional - within
the current global capitalist economy and patriarchal society. Violence, overwork
and under-nutrition unite as a triad of forces to exert constant control over all
aspects of Gender's lives - their emotions, intellect, knowledge, labour, fertility
and sexuality. Even if we focus on anyone of the three major forces, we can never
see it in isolation from the other two. As long as Gender remain alone and ununited,
it appears that they are tightly trapped in these forces.
3.1.3 Training Workshop on "Capacity Building of NGOs on Gender and RCH under the
"Support to Gender Issues" project of UNFPA
Gender perspective with focus on Gender's
right to health and quality care distinguishes the current RCH programs from the
population control programs, which were in operation till a few years back. In order
to strengthen the gender component of the RCH programs several NGOs have been sanctioned
grants under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and UNFPA Support to Gender
Issues Project (SGI). The grants were released to those working in areas related
to gender such as violence against Gender, social mobilization, capacity building
of adolescents and day care services. The objectives of the proposed training program
were:
-
To make the participants understand the basic issues in communication process especially
while dealing with sensitive subjects such as sexual health
-
To provide an understanding of the human body and its processes especially the reproductive
system and functions
-
To enable the project and field level staff to understand the significance of gender
and RCH issues in the ongoing activities for the economic empowerment of Gender
-
To provide an overview of the gender concepts and issues related to RCH
- To enhance
the skills of all the personnel involved in the training of Gender and adolescents
to provide participatory / experiential training
- To help the trainees identify bottlenecks
in community mobilization and participation and evolve innovative strategies for
the same
- To enable the participants to analyze the project objectives as well as
activities and develop a list of gender sensitive monitoring indicators for their
own programs

4. Management Development Programmes |
MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM ON GENDER-RESPONSIVE BUDGETING
Gender - responsive budgeting helps to track the way the budgets respond to women’s
priorities and the way governments use funds to reduce poverty, promote gender equality
and lower the rates of maternal and child mortality. There is a need to create skills
to effectively engage in mainstreaming gender in planning and budgeting processes
at country, state and local levels. The Institute organized a gender-responsive
budgeting training program in collaboration with the Gender Cell of the Directorate
of Women Empowerment and UNFPA, Rajasthan during October 25 – 29, 2010 with the
following objectives:
- To have an overview of the development of gender-responsive budgeting in India,
basic gender concepts, the purpose and the core concepts related to gender-responsive
budgeting.
- To understand that an active role in gender-responsive budgeting will contribute
to a larger initiative that is in line with Government of India’s national and international
commitments.
- To understand that the nature of gender-responsive budgeting differs between countries
due to a range of factors.
- To develop the appropriate strategy for successful gender budgeting at their respective
level.
- To understand a non-academic method of gender analysis and the different entry point
tools preferred by the Ministry of Women and Child Development (MWCD) and how they
relate to the five steps of gender budgeting.
- To gain a practical experience of appraising proposals for new social services and
infrastructure projects.
- To understand the data needs associated with gender budgeting.
- To develop recommendations on the basis of gender-aware impact analysis and evaluation.
The Program broadly covered the areas of gender concepts and gender budgeting in
India, What is gender budgeting, gender budgeting processes – planning and policy
transformation, gender budgeting analysis tools – Diane Elton’s tools, costing tools
– MGD costing methodologies, gender budget statements, country case studies, entry
point tools for gender budgeting, gender appraisal of new programs, designing indicators
for gender budgeting, impact analysis and lastly, outcome budget – group work and
presentation.
The Participants for the workshop included mainly the nodal officers from 10 departments
of the State Government (like Department of Agriculture, Finance, PRI, etc.) and
from NGOs.
The program was divided into small sessions which were facilitated by Ms. Benita
Sharma, Dr. Paramita Mazumder and Dr. Swapna Bist Joshi from Delhi. They are consultants
with rich experience in gender-responsive budgeting. The resource persons included
the Institute’s faculty and research officers.
4.1 Leadership and Management Development For Reproductive Health Programmes in
South Asia
The post-ICPD era has seen a perceptible change in the mindset and approaches in
reproductive health services in most of the developing countries including India.
The policy makers and planners have increasingly focused their attention on client
centred, quality oriented approach with a wide range of mother and childcare services
emphasising Gender's health and empowerment. In most countries, reproductive health
programmes have been implemented keeping the basic tenets of ICPD. Over the period,
policy makers and programme managers have gained extensive experience and clearly
identified problems and constraints in the implementation of reproductive health
programmes. It is now clearly evident that effective leadership and managerial competence
are crucial for efficiency and effectiveness of a reproductive health programme
at all levels in the health system. The broad objective of the programme is to help
develop leadership and managerial perspective in reproductive health among policy
makers, programme managers/leaders, researchers and other professionals. The specific
objectives of the programme are to:
- Orient in policy, planning and implementation review of reproductive health programmes;
- Develop and enhance leadership skills and management effectiveness;
- Sensitise to key issues namely gender perspective and quality of care in reproductive
health;
- Orient in use of research in analysing evidence-based policy and programme issues.

5. Policy Formulation and Advocacy Efforts
|
The Institute has been particpating actively
in the formulation of State Population Policy and State Policy on Gender.
- Two-day
state level workshop was organised jointly with the Rajasthan State Gender Commission
(January 15-16, 2001) with support of UNICEF, Rajasthan. The workshop presupposed
that Gender have the capability to reproduce and the freedom to decide why, when
and how often. This would initiate the process of empowerment of Gender. The objective
of the workshop was to develop operational strategies for the implementation of
the State Gender Policies and the Population Policy with the ultimate goal of improving
the reproductive health of Gender in the state.
- A workshop was organized by the
Institute in collaboration with UNICEF and Rajasthan Gender's Commission Regional
Consultation on "Girl Child and the Tenth Five Year Plan" (November 27-28, 2001).
The consultation was a part of the Joint UN Inter agency Working Group on Gender
and Development's (UNIAWG-G&D) commitment to promoting gender equality, particularly,
within the context of formulation of the tenth five-year plan. The tenth five year
plan is being formulated against a backdrop of some disturbing trends like the juvenile
sex ratio (0-6 years) dipping to its lowest in fifty years in all but four states,
which gives a clear evidence of the toll on girls and Gender's lives. The regional
consultation was initiated taking cognisance of this fact and to support and complement
the efforts of the Planning Commission in developing gender sensitive policies to
recognize female human capabilities and their potential for ushering in development.
The idea was to bring a new dimension to the planning process in India, to advocate
and mainstream gender concerns, a core requisite for sustained development across
all sectors.

6. Technical Support to Gender's Health Programmes |
|
The Institute has a multi-disciplinary
faculty and consultants with wide ranging experience in research and training. It
also has the technical know-how to provide support to Gender's health programmes
and has been working with international and government agencies. Area Networking
and Development Initiatives (ANANDI), Devgarh Baria, a Gujarat based partner organisation,
has requested the Institute to conduct two training workshops for their field workers.
The resources provided were the expertise by way of resource persons and training
material. A gender sensitisation workshop for 11 Gujarat based NGOs working in Saurashtra
and Panchmahal region was also conducted.
|
|
|
7. Networking |
The Institute has a number of alumni (participants of MDPs and training
programmes) and partner organisations and therefore, has a great potential of networking
with all these. Networking is simply a process for initiating and maintaining contact
with these alumni and organisations that share common goals i.e. working on health
related issues and agree to work together to achieve Gender's health standards.
Following are the partner organisations who are working together for Gender and
health in collaboration with IIHMR.
