Umeed Project
The Umeed project supported by the Mobius Foundation is being implemented in
121 villages of Jarwal block of Bahraich district in Uttar Pradesh by the
Population Foundation of India and its partner Save A Mother (SAM). It is a three-
year project that commenced on April 1, 2023. The project aims to “Improve the
health and well-being of women, adolescent girls, and communities through
access and provision of family planning (FP) and sexual and reproductive health
(SRH) services in Jarwal block in Bahraich district of Uttar Pradesh.”
The key objectives include:
1.Increase awareness and demand for family planning and sexual and
reproductive health services among the reproductive age group.
2.Address sociocultural barriers and norms that hinder the health and well-
being of adolescent girls through on-ground and digital Social Behavior Change
Communication (SBCC) campaigns.
3.Enable access to reproductive health and family planning services through
Swasthya Sammelans.
A project reporting system (MIS) was
developed and field-tested by the knowledge
management team in September 2023. The MIS
will be filled out by the field team and will help
track progress on the key milestones. The MIS
comprises nine tools- (i) village profile; (ii) list of
eligible couples; (iii) home visits to eligible
couples; (iv) follow up with new contraceptive
users; (v) checklist to monitor services at Village
Health Sanitation and Nutrition Days (VHSNDs);
(vi) Village Health Sanitation and Nutrition
Committee (VHSNC) meetings; (vii) school-based
activities; (viii) Swasthya Mela; and (ix) District
Health Society (DHS) and Block Coordination
Committee meetings. The content has been
finalised and MIS registers will be printed and
distributed in the field by the end of November
2023. Each field facilitator will receive a kit
containing the FP flipbook and MIS register for
filling out during the field/ home visits.
