Engagement objective

UNICEF Bihar in close coordination with the State Government departments and development partners in the state, has been undertaking a Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE) project in the COVID-19 context.

StratComm was partnered with to capture the processes and results of this RCCE intervention for a 3 year period (since the inception of the project).

Our process

With a state level team placed in Patna, StratComm worked in close coordination with the UNICEF C4D, CAP, WASH and DRR programs in Bihar. We engaged with local partners across multiple districts, and government officials too. Since 2 years of the project had already passed, we focused on using available documents and capturing stories from the field to capture the processes, challenges, successes and impact.

The long-term partnership helped us capture stories and processes from across Bihar.

Key outcomes

Through this partnership knowledge products like process documents, case studies, stories of change, programme briefs, were prepared. The UNICEF Bihar team is able to use these products to showcase the work done, talk about the champions of change in the field, and provide insights on practices that worked during the intervention period.
