UNICEF has engaged the Rural Support Programs Network (RSPN) to support the Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) in social mobilization activities in the selected districts across Pakistan. SRSO is supporting the EPI for social mobilization and community engagement to ensure community awareness and acceptance of the Measles Rubella Campaign in three districts of Upper Sindh: Kashmore@Kandhkot, Jacobabad and Kamber-Shahdadkot. Under the campaign, SRSO will undertake different activities to support the MR campaign in pre-, during the post phases in these three districts through engaging CRPs and LSOs in collaboration with the District Health Department and EIP Program.
To create awareness and impart information about the planned MR- campaign, SRSO is conducting different activities including advocacy seminars, community awareness sessions, visits to schools and madrasas, market committees and mass announcements at religious places, to get support from all stakeholders and ensure their active participation.
