To facilitate the empowerment of women on SRH and related issues, Ipas Development Foundation (IDF) collaborated with the state government of Jharkhand to implement a youth-focused intervention in West Singhbhum district to improve care-seeking behaviour of young women and men. An evaluation was undertaken by CMS Social using pre–post quasi-experimental research design. Cross-sectional household surveys were carried out in intervention blocks of the district. Baseline round of survey was conducted in March, 2019 while Endline survey was held in March, 2021. Endline round was one of the first surveys conducted in India face-to-face post relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions and just before the initiation of second wave of COVID-19 pandemic in India. All protocols related to COVID Appropriate Behaviours (CAB) was followed by the study team and respondents during the collection of data.
