Abstract/Description: | Present study is an action oriented research plan in which innovative educational tools (video and folk songs) have been used with or without iron folate supplementation to assess the effectiveness of various strategies to increase hemoglobin level and knowledge of various aspects of anaemia on adolescent girls in transitional zone between arid and semi-arid region. The majority of participants in both the study villages were illiterate and anaemic. It appears when nutrition education through innovative instructional tools like, video and folk songs was combined with medical intervention (iron folate supplementation) the target population becomes more receptive, which in turn facilitate adequate follow up of intervention. This ultimately resulted in appreciable increase both in knowledge of anaemia and hemoglobin level of participants. The results also indicated that when education component was combined with iron folate supplementation, the participants succeeded in increasing their hemoglobin level and knowledge on aneamia many folds higher in comparison to simple iron folate supplementation or simple educational treatments. This calls for immediate planning on the part of central and various state government to include nutritional education in form of functional nutrition education in their rural development, poverty alleviation and nutritional intervention programmes. |
