INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
Information management and communication have emerged as lynchpins in CHSJ’s efforts to promote bottom up, participatory processes to strengthen social justice. During this year CHSJ implemented many innovative communication initiatives to engage practitioners working with marginalized and vulnerable population working in different states and countries and in different languages using multiple communication platforms like social media including WhatsApp, Facebook and Twitter; through the mobile phone using Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS) as well as sound files transferred through memory cards as well Listserv, Blogs and Websites. The use of mobile phone technology for implementing an adolescent gender and SRH project and easily accessible digital photo and video technology for documentation to support community monitoring were two innovations that were successfully tried out during the year. Through these innovations we aim to reduce the digital divide and harness the power of modern ICT to empower and for social justice.
