“We help people change harmful norms”: Working with key opinion leaders to influence MNCH+N behaviors in Nigeria
The ACG model increased awareness of health issues and contributed to potential normative shifts. However, slower changes were observed for EBF and GBV norms and broad health system challenges were reported. The model appears to be a promising strategy to further drive SBC for better health outcomes, especially where it is combined with supply-side interventions.
