Malaria SBCC Evidence Database

Publication Date

"For decades, social and behavior change communication (SBCC) has been used in malaria programs to positively influence behaviors around case management, malaria in pregnancy, insecticide-treated nets and indoor residual spraying. However, the evidence base for the impact of SBCC on malaria-related behavioral outcomes is still growing, especially with the recent introduction and scale-up of several malaria interventions and commodities."

This resource from the Health Communication Capacity Collaborative (HC3) represents the results of a critical review of SBCC literature "involving abstract and full-article reviews of approximately 3,600 peer-reviewed articles and 1,700 grey literature documents." The two indicators on which the material was scored are: "the strength of the evidence presented in the article and the extent to which the SBCC activity used best practices during the design and implementation of the program."
