[afro-nets] C-Channel 13- from C-Change- Social and Behavior Change Communication information in peer-reviewed journals

October 2009

Dear Colleagues,

C-Channel No. 13, the monthly e-newsletter from C-Change, connects readers to current research findings in the peer-reviewed literature on social and behavior change communication (SBCC) in the health sector, particularly in the areas of family planning and reproductive health, HIV prevention and care, malaria prevention, antenatal care, maternal health, and gender norms. C Change implements programs and conducts research in Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe on SBCC in these health areas.

C-Channel No. 13 highlights research on SBCC around the integration of family planning and reproductive health programs with HIV and AIDS programs. Articles cover research carried out in Argentina, India, Mozambique, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

Visit the C-Change website for information about how C-Change is using SBCC to address HIV prevention, to prevent malaria transmission, and to assist women and couples to make informed choices about modern and traditional contraceptive methods.

Thank you,

The Knowledge Management Team at C-Change
