26 4. COMMUNITY MONITORING & EVALUATION DELIVERING INNOVATIONS RESULT 4 Selected community volunteers assisted in collecting and measuring outcomes related to knowledge and practices in the target population. Under this result, two rounds of community-managed Lots Quality Assurance Sampling (LQAS) was implemented to track and improve the quality of the process. - Among various Monitoring, Learning and Evaluation (MLE) activities under UPCMP, two rounds of Lot Quality Assurance Sampling (LQAS) surveys were proposed to monitor project activities so that corrective measures could be taken, if necessary. Central to this initiative is the involvement of CRDI members to administer the survey and record quality data. CRDIs are crucial to MLE and subsequently a direct reflection of project outcomes. Thus, many innovative learning techniques and methods were used to better equip the women for this important undertaking. KEY ACTIVATORS Ongoing Technical Support Population Council (PC) has been essential to UPCMP in providing technical assistance during implementation and continuously working to develop salient operations research projects. As a crucial point of departure, PC conducted the baseline survey for the learning phase Blocks, measuring key maternal and newborn health indicators for the project. PC has also played an especially important role in data collection for LQAS by working closely with different teams of CRDI women in the fields and internal MIS staff to ensure timely completion of work and data quality. Assessing Performance CRDI teams were given rigorous training through a number of innovative hands-on techniques to provide participants with experiential learning. These include classroom demonstration, role-play and mock practices, and simulation exercises for conducting surveys. Several strategies were adopted to ensure the quality of surveys to be conducted in the fields, including house listings to identify eligible respondents and trial surveys to identify and address problems in data collection. Data quality was further assured using on-spot observation checks and back-checks by PC.
27 Field Learning Visits UTTAR PRADESH RGMVP Exposure visits were undertaken in West Bengal, Bihar and Jharkhand to gain insight into successful strategies, models and measures for strengthening the capacities of community health workers. The visit to Bandhan (West Bengal) in 2012 stressed the importance of health forums and home visits, as well as health kits, linkages and referrals. Similarly, observing the Ananya Project (Bihar) in 2015 helped consortium partners to better understand the project’s behavior change framework, in particular the elements, approach, tools and aids developed and used by the community. And lastly, the exposure visit to Ekjut (Jharkhand) in 2015 provided key insights into the process of another unique participatory learning and action cycle focusing on maternal and newborn health. JHARKHAND Ekjut BIHAR Ananya WEST BENGAL Bandhan THE VISIT TO WEST BENGAL STRESSED THE IMPORTANCE OF HEALTH FORUMS, HOME VISITS, HEALTH KITS, LINKAGES AND REFERRALS.
