A. Goal and Objectives of Agra Urban Health program The goal of the Agra Urban Health Program is to carry out demonstration and learning activities and develop new interventions in urban slums that lead to synergistic participation of different government officials in urban slums to improve water supply, sanitation and hygiene services to urban poor. B. Executive Summary of Agra Urban Health Program SNBS is implementing the Agra Urban Health Program activities to reach out to underserved urban poor population in Rakabganj North, Yamuna Par and Bundukatra area covering approximately 1,70,000 population. SNBS was selected as a partner NGO by a Screening Committee under the chairpersonship of the Chief Medical Officer, Agra for implementation of the Agra Urban Health Program. The program implementation activities were initiated in November 2005 with 14 slums (approximate population 29,000) and gradually scaled up to cover 20 slums (40,250 population) in Rakabganj North area,15 slums with 46,700 population in Bundukatra area and 44 slums with 79,000 population in Yamuna Par area. SNBS has conducted Mapping and Assessment of Agra slums as key resource organization, jointly facilitated by Department of Health and Family Welfare, Agra and USAID-EHP during February-April 2004. During this process, SNBS has conducted qualitative health vulnerability assessment in slums of Agra and helped USAID-EHP and Department of Health and Family Welfare, Agra in plotting of slums and existing health facilities on the map of Agra and gap identification. This analysis, along with other relevant data has been utilized for development of Urban RCH proposal for Agra city and its implementation from time to time. Subsequently, the Agra Urban Health Program (AUHP) has been implemented as response to request of Government of Uttar Pradesh, suggesting UHRC, formally known as EHP, to initiate PPP models in Agra. UHRC initiated public-private partnership (PPP) process in consultation with the Department of Medical, Health and Family Welfare, Agra. Based on its experience in the area of reproductive and child health, the exceptional contribution rendered in proposal development phase and its credibility in the district, the Screening Committee constituted under the chairpersonship of Chief Medical Officer, DMHFW, Agra has recommended
11
SNBS as potential NGO for implementation of Agra Urban Health Program and for partnership with UHRC operation. Under this partnership, SNBS has been demonstrating community mobilization for demand generation of health services and community linkages with government health facility coupled with continued gentle persuasion with government health service providers in order to increase reach of services leading to overall improvements in health services delivery coverage since November, 2005. Through this approach, SNBS has been mobilizing approximately 40,250 population in 20 slums and facilitating outreach camps through linkage with Rakabganj North D-Type Health Centre. Apart from this, since March 2006 SNBS has been facilitating a multi-stakeholder approach for optimizing local resources and improving reach of services to approximately 46700 underserved urban poor populations residing in 15 slums under Bundukatra D-Type Health Centre catchment area. Since February 2009, SNBS has been demonstrating two approaches at Yamuna Par. Under one, SNBS has set up and managing Urban Health Centre at Naraich, Yamuna Par for providing regular OPD and outreach services to approximately 55000 population residing in 35 slums in Trans Yamuna area.

The intrauterine device (IUD) is a safe and effective method of reversible contraception. IUDs are small flexible devices made of metal, copper and/or plastic that prevents pregnancy by a combination of action mechanisms: a) inhibition of sperm migration in the upper female genital tract; b) inhibition of ovum transport; and c) inhibition of fertilization. The IUD is typically recommended to women of reproductive age who:

require a highly effective reversible method of contraception prefer a method that does not require a daily routine, or a separate action with every act of sexual intercourse are breast-feeding may have difficulty obtaining contraceptives on a regular basis feel that lack of privacy makes use of other methods problematic for medical reasons do not want to use hormonal contraceptives.
Under the partnership with PSI, SNBS has been demonstrating community mobilization for demand generation of IUD insertion services and community linkages with these services. Achievements under Women Health program Since November 2008 till March 2009, SNBS has achieved a target of 312 IUD insertions to women of Agra urban slums. Below are the photographs of achievements of SNBS and main activities under WHP, from beginning up till date.

NATIONAL CHILD LABOUR PROJECT (NCLP)

CHILD LABOUR: "Child labor" is, generally speaking, work for children that harms them or exploits them in some way (physically, mentally, morally, or by blocking access to education).
Child labour in Agra
Child labour in Agra
In 2000, the ILO estimates, "246 million child workers aged 5 and 17 were involved in child labor, of which 171 million were involved in work that by its nature is hazardous to their safety, physical or mental health, and moral development. Moreover, some 8.4 million children were engaged in so-called 'unconditional' worst forms of child labor, which include forced and bonded labor, the use of children in armed conflict, trafficking in children and commercial sexual exploitation." Unicefs State of the Worlds Children Report says only that although the exact number is not known, it is surely in the hundreds of millions.
41
WHY SHOULD WE CARE? Many children in hazardous and dangerous jobs are in danger of injury, even death. Beyond compassion, consider who todays children will become in the future. Between today and the year 2020, the vast majority of new workers, citizens and new consumers whose skills and needs will build the worlds economy and society will come from developing countries. Over that 20-year period, some 730 million people will join the worlds workforce more than all the people employed in today's most developed nations in 2000. More than 90 percent of these new workers will be from developing nations, according to research by Population Action International. How many will have had to work at an early age, destroying their health or hampering their education? WHAT CAUSES CHILD LABOR TODAY? Poverty is widely considered the top reason why children work at inappropriate jobs for their ages. But there are other reasons as well -- not necessarily in this order: 1. family expectations and traditions 2. abuse of the child 3. lack of good schools and day care 4. lack of other services, such as health care 5. public opinion that downplays the risk of early work for children 6. uncaring attitudes of employers 7. limited choices for women WHAT ARE SOME SOLUTIONS TO CHILD LABOR? - Not necessarily in this order: 1. Increased family incomes 2. Education that helps children learn skills that will help them earn a living 3. Social services that help children and families survive crises, such as disease, or loss of home and shelter 4. Family control of fertility so that families are not burdened by children National Child Labour Project (NCLP) This is the major scheme for the rehabilitation of child labour. Under the scheme, Project Societies at the district level are fully funded for opening up of special school/Rehabilitation Centres for the rehabilitation of child labour. The special schools/Rehabilitation Centres provide non-formal education, vocational training, supplementary nutrition, stipend etc. to children withdrawn from employment.
42
The child workers identified in the survey are put in the special schools and provided the following facilities: a) Non-formal/formal education b) Skilled/craft training c) Supplementary nutrition @ Rs. 5/- per child per day d) Stipend @ Rs. 100/- per child per month e) Health care facilities through a doctor appointed for a group of 20 schools. Implementation of NCLP by SNBS Since, the task of upliftment and development of marginalized section of the Indian society has become more challenging with the liberalization and modernization of the economy and growing need of human development and its proper deployment therefore, during the past four-year phase, SNBS focused its efforts in two specific directions - engaging systems, community and community representatives to ensure sustainable outcomes; and replication of successful practices in other areas on a broader scale. The dynamic changes engulfing the Indian Society and the world at large require adequate talent to promote the national interest and lead to a vibrating and modern economy based on equality and interdependence of various individuals and social classes and removing the irrelevant citadel of caste system from India, which in todays context has become a regressive practice for human existence and growth. In view of above, SNBS started four special child labor schools (with 200 child labor boy as well as girl students) from 1st of August 2005, in four different slums of Agra with the objective of providing protection and education to working children (Child Labor) in coordination with Labor Department, Agra under National Child Labor Project. SNBS took the task to educate those children who are exploited at their working places. The teachers of the child labour schools of SNBS are engaged to develop their moral as well as intellectual skills so that they can stand at their own feet, learn and understand the better ways of means and life and can be grown up as best citizens of our Country. Achievement up till July 2011 From 1st of August 2005, we are educating 200 Child labour (boy as well as girls) per year, in our four special child labour schools located in four different slums of Agra City i.e. Nala Kaji Para, Ram Nagar, Jagdish Pura, Chipitola. Up till July 2011, a total of 642 Children from Special Child Labour Schools of SNBS has been promoted and integrated with main stream of education. Below are the details of child labour students integrated with main stream of education and photographs of achievements of SNBS and main activities under NCLP, from beginning up till July 2011.

CAMPAIGNS AND EFFORTS WITH FOGSI:
Honble President of India Smt. Pratibha Patil, along with members of the Federation of Obstetrical & Gynecological Societies of India (FOGSI) and Mr. Ravi Kashyap, President, SNBS at Rashtrapati Bhawan, New Delhi, on 1st October 08.
The Problem of Gender Bias in India: Sex Ratio in India Today when we have forged into the 21st century and have conquered space and are on the verge of human cloning we humans still remain biased towards the sex of the unborn child. Wherever the human race exists in the world to whatever cast and crede the one fact that emerges loud and clear is that the choice of the expected newborn invariably remains a boy. Whenever the news of the arrival of a girl child is given to most of the population in India it is an aura of doom in the family and the friends and well wishers place it as a cause of God on the couple which is related to the "Karma's" of the parents. This major social "look down" on couples bearing female children has lead to the couples and to the women themselves resorting to antenatal sex determination and selective termination of pregnancy and the rampant demand and supply of this technique and procedure has lead to the imbalance of the sex ratio in India. It is well known that socio-cultural factors and practices, such as the status of women, patriarchal structure of the society, preference for a son, fear of dowry and the belief that it is the son who can look after the old parents and so on are the main reasons for adverse sex ratio. In view of the above, SNBS joined hands with FOGSI to remove such practices from poor population of Agra and Save the Indian Mother.
55
SAVING INDIAN MOTHERS AND BETI BACHAO: The vision was to take this message to everywhere and awake every person towards his contribution to womens health and well-being. The very theme encompasses: Education of the adolescent girl Eradication of Anemia Regulate population and fertility Promote contraception and safe abortions Deliver safely Detect cancers Plant a Tree- Amla/Neem The nutritious fruit of Amla- a symbol that the effort will fructify and a message to the village women that Vit C, Iron and Calcium rich food is what they need during pregnancy. FOGSI-ASTRA BHARAT JAGRUTI YATRA-2008: The YATRA had arrived Agra on 19th Oct 08 to celebrate and unite the people of INDIA towards one goal- a healthier, happier mother and to Save and educate the girl child. SNBS, along with its all staff and Women Health Samities has organized the Health camps, awareness programs to spread this message. The overall impact of Yatra Awareness Program was very positive. People have decided to go to the hospitals for regular antenatal checkups and delivery, after attending the awareness programs. Below are the photographs of achievements of SNBS and main activities organized for urban poor population with coordination of FOGSI, from beginning up till July 2009.

RCH CAMPS IN AGRA URBAN UNDER SIFPSA PROJECT

Maternal health services, particularly antenatal care and postnatal care services require special attention to reduce both maternal and infant mortality. Large proportions of women in urban areas are anaemic and are not protected against tetanus. The reach of child health services and their acceptability have to be increased in order to reduce infant mortality. Immunization of children against vaccinepreventable diseases, proper management of diarrhoea, treatment of acute respiratory infection and improved nutrition are the important measures that need to be strengthened. The camp approach may not be the best approach to provide high-quality services on a regular and continuous basis but, given the current service delivery situation, is the best suited to reach those in need of services. Keeping in view of the above, Shri Niroti Lal Buddha Sansthan (SNBS) started RCH camps with support of Department of Medical Health & Family Welfare (DMHFW) under SIFPSA Project in urban slums of Agra City, during year 2003 2004, in order to improve access to and quality of services. SNBS have been selected and provided the opportunity for implementation of the RCH Camps by CMO Agra, because of its strength in community mobilization and extensive network. Staff of SNBS created mass awareness through inter personal counseling and provide family welfare services at doorsteps to people in urban areas. Achievements of SNBS During the period 2003 to 2004, SNBS has organized 181 RCH Camps in urban slums of Agra City and a total of 18589 patients were provided Health check up, ANC, Immunization and other Health services. In these RCH camps Oral Contraceptive Pills and Nirodh were provided to 4877 women; ANC of 999 pregnants were conducted, TT vaccination of 859 pregnants, IFA Tablets provided to 1582 women, Immunization of 4962 children, Health counseling to 6981, Health Check up of 3016 women by Lady Doctor, check up and treatment to 72 RTI/ STI patients, and treatment to 5222 other patients was provided along with medicines. Below are some photographs of these RCH camps organized by SNBS.

HIV/ AIDS AWARENESS: AIDS No other word engenders as much fear, revulsion, despair and utter helplessness as AIDS. Despite increased AIDS awareness, the terror persists. AIDS is, in fact, rewriting medical history as humankind's deadliest scourge. The first AIDS case in India was detected in 1986, and since then, HIV infection has been reported in all states and union territories. Estimated number of people living with HIV/AIDS, 2007 (according to NACO) People living with HIV/AIDS: 2.31 million Adult (15 years or above) HIV prevalence: 0.34% Previously it was thought that around 5 million people were living with HIV in India - more than in any other country. Better data, including the results of a national household survey conducted in 20052006, led to a major revision of the prevalence estimate in July 2007. It is now thought that around 2.3 million people in India are living with HIV. Of these, an estimated 39% are female and 3.5% are children. National Family Health Survey 2005-2006, HIV statistics The National Family Health Survey, which tested more than 100,000 people for HIV, also found prevalence to be higher in urban areas (0.35%) than in rural areas (0.25%). AIDS statistics NACO has not produced estimates of the number of people living with AIDS and the number of people who have died from AIDS, for some time. Some of the last figures produced were from 2005, which showed that by the end of 2005 the total number of reported AIDS cases in India was 116,905, of which 34,177 were women. Around a third of these were among people younger than 30 years. These figures significantly under-represent the actual number of people living with AIDS. Many AIDS deaths go unreported in India, due to unprecedented levels of stigma and discrimination. In many situations a patient will die without HIV having been diagnosed, and with the death attributed to an opportunistic infection, such as tuberculosis. Main Events for HIV/ AIDS Awareness organized by SNBS In order to address the HIV/AIDS pandemic, Mass awareness events carried out by SNBS every year to educate, motivate, and mobilize the local community in the response to HIV/AIDS. Below are the photographs of main activities organized by SNBS, from beginning up till July 2009.

AWARENESS CAMPAIGNS FOR ENVIRONMENT AND TREE PLANTAION: Benefits of clean environment and trees: Social Benefits We like trees around us because they make life more pleasant. Most of us respond to the presence of trees beyond simply observing their beauty. We feel serene, peaceful, restful, and tranquil in a grove of trees. We are at home there. Hospital patients have been shown to recover from surgery more quickly when their hospital room offered a view of trees. The strong ties between people and trees are most evident in the resistance of community residents to removing trees to widen streets. Or we note the heroic efforts of individuals and organizations to save particularly large or historic trees in a community. The stature, strength, and endurance of trees give them a cathedral-like quality. Because of their potential for long life, trees frequently are planted as living memorials. We often become personally attached to trees that we or those we love have planted. Communal Benefits Even though trees may be private property, their size often makes them part of the community as well. With proper selection and maintenance, trees can enhance and function on one property without infringing on the rights and privileges of neighbours. Environmental Benefits Trees alter the environment in which we live by moderating climate, improving air quality, conserving water, and harbouring animal and birdlife. Climate control is obtained by moderating the effects of sun, wind, and rain. Radiant energy from the sun is absorbed or deflected by leaves on deciduous trees in the summer and is only filtered by branches of deciduous trees in winter. We are cooler when we stand in the shade of trees and are not exposed to direct sunlight. In winter, we value the suns radiant energy. Therefore, we should plant only small or deciduous trees on the south side of homes. Wind speed and direction can be affected by trees. The more compact the foliage on the tree or group of trees, the greater the influence of the windbreak. The downward fall of rain, sleet, and hail is initially absorbed or deflected by trees, which provides some protection for people, pets, and buildings. Trees intercept water, store some of it, and reduce storm runoff and the possibility of flooding. Dew and frost are less common under trees because less radiant energy is released from the soil in those areas at night. Temperature in the vicinity of trees is cooler than that away from trees. The larger the tree, the greater the cooling. By using trees in the cities, we are able to moderate the heat-island effect caused by pavement and buildings in commercial areas. Air quality can be improved through the use of trees, shrubs, and turf. Leaves filter the air we breathe by removing dust and other particulates. Rain then washes the pollutants to the ground. Leaves absorb carbon dioxide from the air to form carbohydrates that are used in the pl ants structure and function. In
69
this process, leaves also absorb other air pollutants - such as ozone, carbon monoxide, and sulphurdioxide and give off oxygen. By planting trees and shrubs, we return to a more natural, less artificial environment. Birds and other wildlife are attracted to the area. The natural cycles of plant growth, reproduction, and decomposition are again present, both above and below ground. Natural harmony is restored to the urban environment. HEATING AND COOLING COSTSA 25 foot tree reduces annual heating and cooling costs of a typical residence by 8 to 12 percent, producing an average $10 savings per American household. Also, buildings and paving in city centers create a heat-island effect. A mature tree canopy reduces air temperatures by about 5 to 10F, influencing the internal temperatures of nearby buildings. AIR QUALITY AND CLEANSINGA typical person consumes about 386 lb of oxygen per year. A healthy tree, say a 32 ft tall ash tree, can produce about 260 lb of oxygen annually - two trees supply the oxygen needs of a person each year! Also, cooler air temperatures created by tree canopies reduce smog levels by up to 6%, producing savings in air clean-up campaigns. Finally, a mature tree absorbs from 120 to 240 lbs of the small particles and gases of air pollution. In Sacramento, CA, for instance, this represents a value of $28.7 million. IMPROVED WATER QUALITYThe canopy of a street tree absorbs rain, reducing the amount of water that will fall on pavement and then must be removed by a storm water drainage system. In one study, 32 feet tall street trees intercepted rainfall, reducing storm water runoff by 327 gallons. Savings are possible since cities can install surface water management systems that handle smaller amounts of runoff.

TB CAMPS AND AWARENESS CAMPAIGN: Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is spread through the air by a person suffering from pulmonary TB. A single Sputum +ive Patient can infect 10-15 people in a year if not treated. India contribute 1/3rd global burden of TB and TB has been declared a Global Emergency. In India there are 14 million TB patients; 2 million new TB patients are added every year of which 1 million are of infectious type. More adults die from TB than from any other infectious disease in India, more than 1000 every day and 1 every minute. TB kills women more than all causes of maternal mortality combined and every year in India 300000 children leave school on account of their parents TB. TB is the most common opportunistic disease in people living with HIV. In view of the above fact, SNBS conducted a TB Camp with support of Medicine Deptt., S.N. Medical College, Agra at Choti Athai slum on 25.04.2004. During this camp 32 patients were identified as TB infected and treated further by the Medicine Deptt. of S.N. Medical College, Agra. Keeping in view of such a large number of identification of TB patients in only one slum, SNBS intends to look forward for the sake of poor population in other urban slums and started TB Awareness Program in 20 urban slums of Agra for six days from 26.05.2005 to 31.05.2005. In this awareness program, SNBS staff approached house to house for identification of TB patients on the basis of basic symptoms. Achievements of SNBS A total of 556 TB patients were identified and were motivated to seek treatment and referred at TBDTC during the TB Awareness Program organised by SNBS in 20 urban slums of Agra for six days from 26.05.2005 to 31.05.2005. In order to address the TB pandemic, Mass awareness events were also carried out by SNBS to educate, motivate, and mobilize the local community in the response to TB. Below are the photographs of main activities organized by SNBS.

SOCIAL MARKETING INITIATIVES: Safe Water & Child Survival: Situated along the banks of river Yamuna, the northern Indian city of Agra takes pride in being the land of the Taj Mahal. But behind this veneer, lie the poverty and squalor of numerous slums. Agra, spread over 140 sq. km. along the banks of the river Yamuna in western Uttar Pradesh, is a good example of a fast growing million plus city. It is Indias premier tourist destination in 2007-08 it witnessed an inflow of 2.7 million foreign tourists bringing in revenue of US$ 2.3 million to the Taj Mahal alone. Agra also has a sizeable urban poor population, mostly residing in its burgeoning slums. The population living in slums or squatter settlements was estimated at 8.41 lakh, which is about 50% of the citys total population. Poor living conditions Slums live constantly under the threat of demolition and eviction. Rampu Ki Jhopri is an example of a slum which was demolished and relocated at a further distance from its original location. Now the open space is used by the urban poor to tie up cattle owned by them and for drying dung cakes. Sanitation is the most pressing issue in a majority of slums with situations varying from existence of individual toilets which lead into open drains to a total absence of individual or public toilet facility. Public toilets provided in slums suffer from lack of regular cleaning, rendering them unusable. This is visible in slums like Nala Mantola, Nagla Bhavani Singh and Ghatiya Mamu Bhanja. Children defecate in drains in most slums. Drains are open and narrow, which remain blocked due to disposal of solid waste and absence of regular cleaning. In Rampu Ki Jhopri, Gopalpura and Takht Gumbat Pehelwan, open spaces are used for sewage and garbage disposal, creating an extremely unhealthy environment. Public taps and hand pumps provided in slums often dry up in summers, leaving residents dependent on ground water for meeting their basic needs. Water quality is poor. At times residents access the drinking water by inserting utensils or pipes through the wastewater itself. In some areas one can witness the broken water mains over a drain and people hanging their buckets to fetch drinking water from the cracked pipes just above the slushy drain. Water from pipes next to drains has also led to cases of water-borne diseases, particularly among the children. There are also certain neighbourhoods where the womenfolk have to walk as much as two to three kilometres to fetch water. They manage to gather water by digging and it is not fit for drinking. There are no hand pumps. There is no water in taps as well. Women have to travel long distances to get water. We are facing a lot of problems. Children are falling sick. There is no water anywhere somehow we are getting water from cracked pipes near drains and are trying to fulfill our requirement,' said Hem a resident.
78
Piped water supply was available to only 7 percent of the slum households. 78 percent of them depended on public taps for water. About 63 percent of the slum households use some kind of flush toilet facility, largely pit toilets and septic tanks, while 33 percent defecate in the open. Addressing the challenges The situation of the urban poor in Agra echoes their plight in similar cities across India. In spite of their vital contribution to the citys economy, the urban poor do not receive the benefits of city life. Their isolation is manifested in slums, which are a reflection of inequality and social exclusion in urban areas. To address the challenges faced by the urban poor in Agra, it is essential to: Strengthen services with a focus on vulnerable urban poor settlements; Explore innovative approaches to expand breadth of affordable services among vulnerable slums both public and private; Influence community demand for services and link community with providers to address the increased demand sufficiently; Help slum communities organize themselves to negotiate change through collective action; Achievements of SNBS In order to address the problem of safe drinking water for urban poor population of Agra, SNBS adopted Social marketing as an effective way for the same. For this, SNBS started motivating lowincome and high-risk people to adopt healthy behaviour, including the use of SAFEWAT. A key ingredient of successful social marketing is effective communications to encourage the adoption of appropriate health practices (including proper use of the products and services). So, from May 2009, SNBS started advertising SAFEWAT by generic educational campaigns, using a mix of strategies and channels, including interpersonal communications, to reach the mass population. Project implementation start date 8th June 2009 In June 2009, SNBS launched SAFEWAT and set the target as: Target population/location All urban slums of Agra City Low income urban areas Key Practices Consumption of safe water, in a consistent and exclusive manner, by all family members of all slums of Agra City, by regularly using the safe water system to treat water and store it safely
79
Including, adoption of hygienic practices that impact on water and food safety, in particular: Hand washing Clean food preparation Clean toilet habits, including sanitary disposal of feces Proper garbage disposal Including continuation of healthy practices known to play a protective/beneficial role: exclusive breastfeeding vaccination oral rehydration therapy increased feeding for up to two weeks following a diarrheal episode Intervention elements Sodium hypochlorite disinfectant produced by private sector manufacturer for PSI. The brand name is SAFEWAT. SNBS ensured Social marketing of SAFEWAT with full cost recovery through CLVs / AWWs/ ANMs which can earn a margin on each unit sale of disinfectant. Current status of project Communication material about SAFEWAT have been developed and distributed in slums, and training of 500 Women Health Samiti members including 33 CLVs at slum level has put in place on interpersonal communication and door-to-door sales of SAFEWAT. As per records of sales data, SNBS has achieved sales of 1500 SAFEWAT bottles up till 8 th July 2009. Despite of this, in view the necessity of Sanitary Pads to Women in slum areas and Iodine requirements for physical as well as mental fitness of their children, 5000 packets of 1 Kg of Iodine Salt and 150 sanitary pads have also been sold by SNBS in these areas, up till 8th July 2009. Below are the photographs of main activities organized by SNBS.
