But the messages that World vision has put on the walls are important. They want us to look at them, understand them, understand why it is important to take care of our children, or why it is important to do breast feeding. Just telling a man something doesn’t help at times. But when they see these paintings and messages around they start to understand the message. That’s why they have put it in the Anganwadi, shops. Neha also tells us the same messages. There are games and competitions held for us to understand these messages as well,” says Monika. “In our meetings, we keep repeating the same information that people see on walls, in the shops, at the school, centres, etc. So these health messages are slowly seeping into their minds and they act as reminder,” says Neha.
