"Go to the people. Live with them. Learn from them. And what is more, respect them. Talk with them in the language they understand..." says Shanta Raye, IEC Adviser, DANTB - Orissa, India. Community mobilization and education are key to the success of the Directly Observed Treatment Strategy (DOTS). Profiling the work of model community mobilizer Shanta Raye, a health educator working in Orissa, India, this video illustrates how social and community mobilizers contribute to the success of the TB programme in India, even in remote areas. Shanta's story highlights the crucial role of Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) in effectively mobilizing TB patients, families and communities to support and sustain DOTS and stop TB.
