Integrating a Conflict Lens into SBC Programming for Polio Campaigns

This resource provides a roadmap for integrating conflict-sensitive strategies into SBC programming to address polio in fragile contexts. It highlights critical components for adapting interventions to insecure environments.

Key components include:

  • Tools for integrating conflict-specific components into SBC plans and communication strategies.
  • Guidance on adapting microplans, behavioral strategies, and message design to conflict settings.
  • Capacity-building activities through webinars and workshops tailored for priority countries.
  • Monitoring and documenting best practices and lessons learned to refine future approaches.

Readers can use this guide to plan, implement, and evaluate conflict-sensitive SBC strategies that build trust and address community concerns, ultimately improving vaccination outcomes.

 

If you're interested in detailed SBC strategies, see the "SBC in Conflict: Training Module for Polio Outbreak Response." 

For specific tools and templates, refer to the "Conflict-Sensitive Planning Tools for SBC in Polio Eradication." 

To explore practical experiences and lessons learned from implementing SBC strategies in conflict-affected areas, see "SBC in Conflict-Affected Lubunga Health District (DR Congo): Strategies, Challenges, and Lessons Learned."
