Group IPC - any setting

Group-based interventions involve the provision of RMNCH information, education and/or counselling in a group-setting rather than one-to-one. Interventions can include meetings with a select group (e.g. pregnant women), village health clubs, community dialogue, client-provider forums, workshops, fairs and other events in different settings such as schools, health facilities and community settings., These interventions may also include the provision of written and electronic educational aids, such as pamphlets, posters, video etc. Those delivering the group-based interventions may be physicians, nurses, midwives, paraprofessionals, traditional providers, cadres, trained teachers, trained peer-educators, other health workers and volunteers.

These types of interventions may include the provision of print or electronic materials as part of the group interpersonal communication and counselling. They also often include an element of training for the provider undertaking the interpersonal communication.
