SNEHA Dissemination Report

The SNEHA Dissemination Report centers around equity in healthcare and its importance for urban vulnerable communities, focusing on integrated approaches to improve health and well-being. The report summarizes the organization's achievements, key programs, and the dissemination event marking its 25th year. It highlights the critical role of public health services,

evidence-based interventions, and community collaboration in addressing urban health challenges. The dissemination event emphasized a continuum of care approach and showcased endline results from key programs targeting maternal and child health, adolescent health, and prevention of violence against children. Positive outcomes included reductions in maternal and adolescent anemia, improved dietary diversity, and increased service uptake. However, challenges such as persistent physical and psychological violence against children remain.

The report features insights from panel discussions and roundtables that explored gender and social determinants in health, innovative strategies for tackling malnutrition, and the role of technology in scaling interventions. The discussions underlined the necessity of partnerships among public systems, NGOs, and communities, as well as the importance of capacity-building for community volunteers and leveraging local governance for effective policy implementation.

A major milestone was the launch of the SNEHA Knowledge Centre, aimed at consolidating and sharing learnings to promote health and violence prevention. The center emphasizes collaborative learning, inclusivity, and scaling evidence-based programs. The event concluded with a commitment to sustainable health interventions through partnerships, integrated services, and community engagement.
