Using the role model approach to optimise caregiver administration of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine amodiaquine to children aged 3–59 months in Burkina Faso, Chad and Togo: findings from an evaluation
Caregivers perceived the role model approach to be beneficial in aiding drug administration, with other positive impacts also reported. Replication and scale-up should utilize the most popular communication channels and existing community structures to ensure activities are promoted effectively. A mixture of group and one-on-one approaches should be used where appropriate and feasible.
