Information; education and communication messages and materials: survey report

ABSTRACT

The main objective of the survey was to take an inventory of all IEC materials and messages currently in use throughout the country. The findings showed that a) knowledge of health workers and their clients on key messages in most critical programme areas was low; b) some peripheral units were underserved in the supply of IEC materials; c) most units experienced storage problems for IEC materials; and d) most health workers lacked basic skills in effective use of IEC materials
