Your March CoP News and Resources

 
Greetings Community! 

I have just returned from Cambodia where I visited our Child Health and Nutrition Impact Study research site.  Unlike many of you, I don't get to the field very often and so I return to my desk inspired by the many hands and feet that carry out this important work in our country programmes.  In the months ahead, CHNIS endline data will be reviewed and we will be taking a look at how this research will change the way we do CVA, TTC and COMM programming.  Stay tuned!

In this newsletter, as we do each month, I am sharing resources and conversation highlights from the last month - including new resources and updates from Senegal, Switzerland, Somalia, MEER Region, Adolescent Health Working Group, COMM Champions, our WASH CoP, and more!

I hope you are planning to join us in our Friday Community Discussion on EBOLA: Continued Lessons Learned on Sierrra Leone's 1-Year Ebola Free Anniversary.  Connection details are linked below.

Kindly,
Sarah Crass, MPH
Sustainable Health Knowledge Management Advisor
YOUR Global Health CoP Manager!
What Your Community Is Sharing:
Human Rights Based Approaches to Sexual & Reproducive Health - WV Senegal and WV Switzerland featured

Medicus Mundi Switzerland, a Swiss Network of NGOs working in health, released a research paper on the issue of Human Rights Based Approach to Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights.  A WV Senegal site, whose use of community approaches (including Grandmothers and partnering with the Grandmother Project) for reducing FGM, early pregnancies, and increasing marriage age, was included.

Meet Your CoP Member: Paulraj J. Daniel, World Vision Sri Lanka Lindula ADP Development Facilitator

I have worked for World Vision Lanka for 4 years - and World Vision is my 7th INGO!  I came from a plantation estate, where my parents worked as estate workers and were never educated.  With many challenges, I managed my secondary education and diploma.  Now I am working for the same community where I can pour out my heart and soul for the poor and marginalized communities of children in vulnerable situations. In my current work, I am excited about the nutrition work being done through PD/Hearth and hope to see this intervention sustained in our community.  In my free time, I enjoy reading books and being with family.   I give thanks for the blessings given by God in my life.
