Agency : CECODECON, Jaipur

Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao (BBBP) Scheme was introduced in October 2014 to address the issue of declining child sex ratio. It is implemented through a national campaign and focuses on multi-sector action in 100 selected districts with low CSR, covering all States and UTs. CECOEDECON, in partnership with the UNFPA (Rajasthan State Office) is implementing BBBP in four districts namely Dausa, Tonk, Sawai Madhopur and Karauli and attempting to address the social and structural determinants of gender based discrimination. IIHMR is doing the baseline study for them to strengthen the implementation of BBBP in said districts. The objectives of the study are to provide contextual information / situational analysis on attitudes, knowledge and behavior of communities and stakeholders in each of the four districts relating to the rights of girls and women, to gather relevant baseline data for key project indicators to be measured over the course of the project and to develop recommendations for on-going project monitoring, learning and assessment of the project. A mix method methodology will be used to collect the required information from the adolescents, parents of adolescents, school teachers, community and departmental officials.
