  • Since

    2005

The Urban Health Resource Centre (UHRC) works with slum communities to better inform them on issues of health, nutrition, infection prevention, unders Read moretanding of government services, schemes of various government departments and how they can be availed. The objective is to ensure that demand for better health services emerges from the community itself with better knowledge.  The focus of the Urban Health Resource Centre’s (UHRC) efforts is not only improving health outcomes in underprivileged communities but also building foundational human capacity. UHRC’s social facilitators work consistently with the women and children groups in the slums of Indore and Agra to strengthen and deepen self-confidence, build self-esteem and instil confidence to enable them to demand their rights.  A key component of the UHRC’s program is building competence and confidence among the under-privileged communities to better negotiate with officials for their entitlements and the services due to them. For instance, women’s groups and children’s groups are taught how to write, submit (with a proof of receipt) community requests and petitions, reminders. They are encouraged to maintain a paper trail and thus learn to negotiate skillfully and tactfully.  The emphasis of the efforts is to negotiate with officers and politics based on evidence and to demonstrate the ‘how to do’ of actions.  These capacities built over time develop into a kind of non-perishable competence which grows with time and efforts among the women’s and children’s groups across the more than 200,000 vulnerable population in the slums of Indore and Agra. Through these skills slum communities are able to demand and access services such as healthcare, vaccination, care of pregnant women, paved streets, drains, electricity connections, water supply and sewerage systems. The spill over effects mean that sometimes communities living even beyond the UHRC program area benefit from these efforts.


Issue

Poor capacity to access health and nutrition services, capacity to negotiate with civic authorities for slum infrastructure services, poor nutrition, high levels of anaemia, weak savings of families, forced to borrow from money lenders.


Action

Women’s Groups The Mahila Arogya Samitis, as these slum women’s groups are named in the National Urban Health Mission, are grassroots institutions that promote a sense of collective responsibility, group cohesion and initiative among the people. Women’s groups and other active/interested women form the platform on which UHRC’s social facilitators provide inputs through capacity building, motivating and mentoring efforts. The program also leads to improved health outcomes for the population In a patriarchal society, women’s groups result in increasing women’s autonomy in decisions on healthcare, children’s (including girls’) education, associated expenditure and promote savings. Community women’s groups contribute to a positive gender equation at family and society levels, provide social support to needy families These groups are also the starting point of a collective community request to the civic authorities for laying of the sewerage system, paving of unpaved lanes, community water supply, cleaning of garbage, clearing of blocked sewerage pipes and other similar services.
