Male Engagement in Maternal and Child Health Tool
Following a survey and follow-up interviews with numerous NGOs and academics the need for a harmonized tool documenting male engagement in women’s and children’s health was identified as a priority. This is not a new priority, but one that is inadequately understood and in need of a user friendly, harmonized tool that will allow for:
1. Improved documentation of male engagement behaviors
2. Impact evaluation of intervention programs
3. Comparison with other interventions, and
4. Eventual validation of engagement behaviors in terms of their impact on health and well being outcomes of mothers and children
