Monitoring and Coverage Validation of National Deworming Day (NDD) and follow up activities at school, Anganwadi and household levels was undertaken in a professional manner ensuring real-time data is available with the project team and concerned government officials for follow up action. Spread across all districts of Jharkhand, the team members visited schools and Anganwadis in the remotest locations of the districts to provide on-spot data on the management and observance of NDD.
This was followed by household level Coverage Evaluation Survey in five districts of the state to assess the parents’ awareness and practices related to deworming programme and measures taken in this regard.
