    Ubongo joins 2018 International SBCC Summit in April!

    By ubongo | Blog | Comments are Closed | 9 March, 2018 | 0

    Nisha Ligon, our CEO, is invited to speak (Crafting sticky stories for Africa’s littlest learners) at 2018 International SBCC Summit ”

    The collective power of people to transform the social and political structures that govern their lives 
is the true heart of development. Social and Behavior Change Communication (SBCC) engages and supports people to shift norms, change behaviors, and amplify the voices needed to address the persistent development challenges the world faces today: extreme poverty, gender inequities, public health emergencies, acute and chronic diseases, climate change, and democracy and governance among others.

    The 2018 International Social and Behavior Change Communication (SBCC) Summit featuring Entertainment Education is organized to better understand what works in shifting social norms, changing behaviors and in amplifying the voice of those who have most at stake in the success of development efforts. It is designed to wrestle with the profound issues of social justice and agenda setting that affect these decisions. Who decides, for example, what behaviors need changing or which norms should be shifted? How can people’s realities and voices be put at the center of such change? How much emphasis should be placed on shifting norms and behaviors when power structures, policy environments or lack of services may constitute problems that overwhelm the capacity of individuals or communities to act?

     Where And When Will The Summit Be Held?

    Nusa Dua, Indonesia from April 16-20, 2018

    Who Should Participate?

    The Summit is open to a wide range of participation from government, regional entities, academics, NGOs, CSOs, global agencies and the private sector working on development and health issues.

    Who Is Organizing The Summit?

    The 2018 SBCC Summit will be hosted by a consortium of international and local partners including the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs, The Communication Initiative, Soul City Institute, UNICEF and BBC Media Action.

    African Edutainment, BBC Media Action, Digital learning, Education transformation, edupreneurs., Edutainment, innovative, Interactive learning, Johns Hopkins Center, SBCC, Soul City Institute, Unicef
