Seefar’s success in behaviour change communications is based on our unique focus on tailoring our messaging and approach to the individual. Thanks to this focus, our 2020 COVID-19 communications campaigns in Nigeria saw behaviour change rates of up to 97% in communities where myths about the virus dominated the narrative.

Our COVID-19 prevention campaign

Seefar identified intrinsically motivated community volunteers across Nigeria to spread messages in their communities about COVID-19 prevention. With the help of 29 volunteers, over 1700 Nigerians were reached over a four week period with consultations that helped them understand how they can protect themselves from the virus. During our check-backs with volunteers and beneficiaries weeks later, we discovered that almost all beneficiaries surveyed had changed their behaviours.

In communities with high levels of mistrust toward governmental sources, top-down health communications are often ineffective. Our campaigns rely on community actors, recruited for their influential position, to disseminate messaging.
