Annexure-IV

Convergence strategy under SAG:

Coordination of efforts of different Ministries /Departments at all levels is an essential

component for the success of the scheme. There should be convergence of services with various

schemes/ programmes of Health, Education and Panchayati Raj Institutions. Convergent Micro-

plans at the district, block and village level with the concerned departments may be made. The

responsibility to effect this convergence will be with the Monitoring and Supervision Committee

at the State, District, Project and Village levels

1. Convergence with the Health System:

Three of the seven services under the scheme will be provided in convergence with the schemes

of the Departments of Health & Family Welfare and AIDS Control. These are:

i. IFA supplementation, including supply of IFA tablets

ii. Health check-up and referral services

iii. Nutrition and Health Education

(i) IFA Supplementation:

Prevalence rates for anaemia are high among AGs in India. Evidence suggests that IFA

supplementation helps in combating anaemia and enhancing adolescent growth. National Health

Mission (NHM) has covered children (6-10 years) and adolescents (11-18 years) under the

Weekly Iron and Folic Acid Supplementation Programme.

Activities: State Government /UT concerned will establish convergence with Health Department

to ensure adult tablets of IFA for each beneficiary of SAG. Policy guidelines regarding IFA

supplementation issued, inter alia, by the NHM will be adhered to.

Out-of-school AGs attending AWC may be given one adult IFA tablets per week when they

come to the AWC for other services. The AGs should preferably consume the IFA tablets at

the AWC itself. Sakhi and Sahelis may counsel AGs for this. Distribution and consumption has

to be recorded on Kishori Cards. ANM/AWW will give information to AGs on food fortification,

dietary diversification, advantages of supplementation by IFA tablets and its consumption with

food for combating IFA deficiency.

Procedure: The quarterly requirement of the number of tablets may be projected by the

supervisor based on number of beneficiaries in the AWCs under her. These may be consolidated

at the Project and District level for requirement to be placed to the State Health Department. The

Health Department. will deliver upto PHC level from where the DPOs would source them down

20

to CDPOs and so on. Efforts should be made to make IFA procurement and supply part of

Project Implementation Plan (PIP) of NRHM.

Additionally, it is to be ensure that AWWs are properly informed of the IFA supplementation

schedule and provided IEC material, including frequently asked questions (FAQs) regarding

such supplementation, sourced through the Department of Health & Family Welfare.

(ii) Health Check-up and Referral Services:

Adolescents face numerous risks and problems relating to substance abuse, violence and injury,

nutritional, psychological and behavioural problems relating to the rapid physical and emotional

changes during the period of adolescence. Access to health services therefore needs to be

ensured for AGs.

Activities:

(a) A general health check-up of all AGs atleast once in every three months, on Kishori

Diwas, will be organised. For this, the ICDS Supervisor, in close collaboration with

the ANM and other health functionaries, will draw a schedule for the village/ward

level.

(b) AWW, assisted by Sakhi and Saheli, will ensure recording of height, weight and BMI

of AGs on Kishori Cards, in order to keep a close watch on the status of growth of

AGs. Adult weighing scales provided to AWCs under ICDS would be used for

weighing AGs. The weighing scales provided in the kit of the ASHA / ANM may

also be used for weighing AGs.

(c) ANM / AWW / ASHA would ensure discussion and clarification of general queries

of AGs on issues related to health and hygiene on a regular basis.

(d) The Medical Officer/ANM will provide de-worming tablets to AGs as per State / UT

specific guidelines.

(e) In case of AGs having problems requiring specialized treatment, Medical Officers

would refer the AGs, with a referral slip, to the District Hospital / PHC / CHC /

Maternal & Child Health (MCH) Sub–Centre. All referrals would be followed up on /

tracked on the day when the next Kishori Diwas or VHND is organised.

Service Provider: Health check-ups and referral services will be provided through the

grassroots-level healthcare system, i.e., through ASHAs and ANMs. The Medical Officer at the

PHC will be responsible for the health check-ups which will be ensured by the CDPO.

(iii) Nutrition and Health Education (NHE): Adolescent girls require nutritious food, coupled

with correct and relevant information on nutrition and health, as their bodies get geared up

physically for motherhood. In order to address this requirement, the CDPO / Supervisor will

21

ensure nutrition and health education (NHE) for all AGs attending AWCs. Sustained information

on these issues will result in better health of AGs, leading to overall improvement in family

health, and will also help in breaking the vicious intergenerational cycle of malnutrition. Mothers

of AGs may also be motivated for joining in the NHE sessions for improved impact.

Major activities under this component of the scheme may include:

(a) Promoting healthy cooking, eating habits, balanced diet and locally available

nutritious food.

(b) Sensitising about nutrient deficiency disorders, prevention, nutritional requirements

during pregnancy and lactation, etc.

(c) Promoting use of safe drinking water and sanitation.

(d) Educating on personal hygiene, onset of puberty and related changes.

(e) Informing about common ailments, home remedies, first aid, personal hygiene,

exercise, etc.

(f) Educating on avoiding drugs and alcohol abuse, stress management, etc.

Service Provider:

- AWW along with health functionaries like ANM and ASHA,

- Resource persons / field-trainers, including those drawn from NGOs.

- Food and Nutrition Board‟s (FNB)‟s Community Food & Nutrition Extension Units and

Mobile Food & Extension Units may be utilized for training, demonstration and education

on nutrition

- Queries and concerns raised by AGs will be addressed by ICDS and health functionaries

during Kishori Diwas as well as during the course of interaction of AGs with the

AWC/PHC/CHC.

- State Government /UT may organize specialized short duration courses on nutrition and

health education, in collaboration with the FNB, National Institute of Nutrition (NIN) and

voluntary organisations.

2. Convergence with the Education System:

In 2002, universalization of elementary education gained prominence as a national goal in India,

with Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) becoming its implementation vehicle. Subsequently,

specifically targeted approaches to increase the enrollment of girls emerged in form of the

Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) and the National Programme for Education of Girls

at Elementary Level Schemes which were integrated within SSA. The enactment of the Right of

Children to free and Compulsory Education Act (2009), made elementary education a

fundamental Right and a state responsibility to ensure that all children aged 6-14 years complete

elementary education. These policies and schemes have contributed to a steady decline in the

number of out of school children (OOSC) in India, from 13.46 million in 2006 to 6.06 million in

2014. Despite this significant progress, at 6 million, there are still quite a large number of

children are out of school.

22

In 2013, MHRD suggested the following standard definition four out-of-school children:

“A child 6-14 years of age will be considered out of school if he/she has never been enrolled in

an elementary school or if after enrolment has been absent from school without prior intimation

for reasons of absence for a period of 45 days or more.”

Reasons for girls being out of school: Some of the reasons for girls being out of school

are enumerated below need to be addressed:

Gender issues and social norms: Apart from domestic work and sibling care, child marriage

often impact girls‟ education in particular. Furthermore, the SRI-IMRB study indicates that

parents tend to think that education is not as necessary to important in the case of girls. So,

gender inequality is a factor in children, often girls, being out of school. Beyond gender,

discrimination on the basis of caste, religion and disability may also play a role in children‟s

school attendance.

Poverty: While there is data on the profile of OOSC and who they are, there is less research and

evidence on the reasons why they are out of school. The SRI-IMRB 2014 study provides some

insights in this regard, citing poverty as a key cause of children being out of school and not

continuing their education. Related to this, the study notes that children are often pulled out of

school to supplement the household income, which is the case for both girls and boys. In

addition, girls are taken out of school to help with domestic work or to care for siblings.

Furthermore, children may be pulled out of school as their parents migrate to other areas for

work, either seasonally or longer term. Although incentives for elementary education in the form

of scholarships, uniforms and midday meals have brought many OOSC to school.

Lack of awareness regarding the importance of education/regular attendance: Education

not being considered necessary by parents or heads of household- more so in the case of girls

than boys. Furthermore, as also noted above there isn‟t a social norm in certain areas and

communities with regard to regular school attendance, which may be rooted in the lack of

awareness of the importance of going to school regularly on children‟s education and learning.

Lack of parental and community support: It is crucial that parents and communities are aware

of the importance of education and support their children in this regard. Awareness of parents

needs to be raised regarding their children's education, from preschool education through

secondary education, including their entitlements, key non-negotiable quality factors to look out

for and the need to ensure their children attend school regularly.

Access to schools: Children need to be able to access to schools and a quality education in all

areas, urban and rural. Access is not only important with respect to elementary education, but

needs to start at the preschool level and continue on through the secondary level. This requires

coordination and convergence amongst the key ministries and departments involved, particularly

MHRD and Ministry of Women and Child Development (MWCD) as well as the Ministry of

Social Justice and Empowerment, Ministry of Tribal Affairs, amongst others.

Support for successfully transition back to formal schooling or bridge learning / skill

training: The AWW shall undertake home visits in her area, take the help of PRIs, school

teachers, School Management Committee members (SMC) and other stakeholders to identify

23

out of School Girls in the age group of 11+ to 14 years. Criteria for defining Out of School is as

follows:

(i) Never enrolled

(ii) Enrolled but never attended

(iii) Drop outs (as per state definition)

States/UTs with strengthened convergence with Education Department will ensure that OOS

girls are enrolled in school. The objective of the convergence with the education system is

enabling, facilitating and motivating out-of-school adolescent girls to enroll for schools or skill

training. The AGs registered under SAG could either be drop outs or never gone to schools. The

appropriateness of the class accordingly will be decided by the school authorities. The following

activities to be conducted to Support the out of school girls for successfully transition back to

formal schooling or bridge learning / skill training and ICDS supervisors to monitor these

actions:

Anganwadi workers during the home visits by explaining them the benefits of education will

counsel the families of AGs to enroll them in the schools. Information/guidance about entry/re-

entry into formal schools and motivation to do the same will be provided in coordination with

Education Department and with the support from SMCs and teachers. The school authorities may

be invited to address the out of school AGs on days pre-decided, to motivate these AGs by

explaining to them the benefits of education and motivate them to enrol them to schools or skill

training. The teachers may be invited attend the Kishori Diwas for this purpose.

IEC campaign and Community mobilization: Intensive IEC campaign, other communication

activities such as mid-media activities, kala jathas, street plays etc. may be organised by

explaining to them the benefits of education to motivate family member as well as AGs to enrol

the AGs to schools. Community mobilization through community based structures, Working

with the community is imperative to facilitate a social behavior change and girls' transition to

adulthood and their marriage after attaining the age of 18 years and after completion of the full

cycle of elementary education. This will involve actively working with influential community

members such as PRI members, religious leaders and other community leaders and influencers.

To link Community structures such as Panchayat, women‟s self-help groups, school management

committees, youth networks, volunteers such as NSS and NYKS, child protection committees

(CPC) to support girls‟ education

Involving Female role models: Female role models (college going girls from the village,

women police officers from the district, state-level sportswomen, women from the village who

are now working in other professions) will be invited to motivate out-of-school girls to pursue

education. SMC members, Teacher, AWW and Sakhi, Sahelis will be involved in mobilizing the

community to support the girls and to facilitate their going back to school and access bridge

courses.

Role of District, Project and Village level Committees: The District, Project and Village level

Committees of which the school functionaries would also be a member will ensure convergence

and also monitor progress in terms of enrolment of out-of-school adolescent girls in regular

schools and non-formal education centres.

24

Role of Gram Sabha: Issue of education of girls may be discussed in the meeting of Gram

Sabha.

3. Life Skills Education and Accessing Public Services:

Life skills: AGs participation and empowerment through Life Skills Education and sports for

development will be mentored by the teacher. Life skills will be built/strengthened among young

adolescent girls by providing them with multiple and diverse opportunities such as cultural

activities, social networks, and civic action, sports for development, health, arts and drama,

debate, music, environmental work, and others. AGs need to acquire knowledge and develop

attitudes and skills which will support them in and promote among them the adoption of healthy

and positive behaviour to deal effectively with the demands and challenges of everyday life.

Issues to be covered in the training of life skills may include confidence-building, development

of self-awareness and self-esteem, decision-making ability, capacity for critical thinking, better

communication skills, awareness of rights and entitlements, coping with stress, responding to

peer pressure, functional literacy (wherever required) etc. Awareness about gender equality and

human rights, Legal rights, protection from violence, abuse and exploitation may be imparted.

States/UTs will link the life skills component of the SAG Scheme with similar

schemes/interventions of the Department of Youth Affairs and also explore the possibility of

leveraging their scheme and financial resources for AGs.

Awareness about existing public services: One of the important components of the Scheme is

to ensure that AGs have confidence and knowledge about existing public services and how to

access them. Awareness talks and visits should be arranged in collaboration with PRI members

and government offices including the Collectorate, NGOs, Police Personnel, Bank Officials,

Postal Department officials, Health Functionaries, etc. AGs can either be taken for exposure

visits to these places, or personnel from these institutions may address AGs at the AWC.

These activities will be facilitated by the resource persons in coordination with supervisors and

local government functionaries. The District administration may also provide location maps of

basic services for ease of reach to the AGs. Information / guidance about entry / re-entry into

formal schools and motivation to do the same would also be provided in coordination with the

State Department concerned with Elementary Education. Issues on convergence with

Department of Education have been given in above part 2.

Such kind of knowledge will strengthen and empower AGs for their future lives as adults. The

learning outcome would be to access and utilize such services when needed, as opening bank

accounts and post office accounts, making STD calls, filing an FIR, accessing health services

and attending to health emergencies, learning about the panchayat system, making train

reservations and being aware of various relevant schemes and programmes of the Government.

Home Management: AGs benefitting from the scheme will eventually learn to manage their

own homes in an improved manner when they grow up. To equip them with adequate knowledge

25

and skills for effective home management, the module developed for training AGs will include

issues pertaining to home maintenance, budgeting, saving, running the household, gender

sensitivity, schooling of children, etc. AGs will be advised on these issues to orient them to

become more productive members of society.

26

4. Convergence with PRIs:

Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) may be involved with promotive activities like participation of

members of the target community in Kishori Diwas, community monitoring, and Information,

Education & Communication (IEC) activities. The PRI members would be a part of the

Monitoring Committees at all levels. Gram Panchayat to support girls to get back to school and

bridge education by liaising with panchayat, SMC, Child Protection Committee, SSA

functionaries and teachers.

The DPO and CDPO will establish coordination with PRI members in areas where the AWC is

not found to have adequate facilities for the AGs. They would together decide the place – school,

panchayat bhavan, community hall or any other where space and time could be provided for the

AGs to gather for non nutrition interventions. For this purpose, supervisor with the PRI member

of the village will decide whether the AWC is suitable or not.
