[ARMMAN @armmanindia]

Women are at the heart of ARMMAN's work. Our programs focus on enabling #pregnantwomen & #mothers to make better health decisions for themselves and their #children, and this is accomplished by a team composed predominantly of women who strive hard to make a difference. #mhealth

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

Here's hoping for a happier and healthier 2022!

[ARMMAN @armmanindia]

2021 was marked with challenges, but also with new partnerships, exciting developments and many memorable moments at ARMMAN. Thank you to everyone who has shown support and encouraged us along the way.

In this article for @dasra's 'Buffering Now' series, we write about ARMMAN's learnings from the pandemic, our #TechPlusTouch model, how digital solutions can deepen existing divides and what it takes to create impactful and equitable health interventions.

@DrRajnishGourh @armmanindia Yes, the role of husbands and family elders is critical. Men's knowledge about pregnancy-related care and a positive gender attitude enhances maternal health care utilization and women's decision-making about their health care. #ARMMANChat #mHealth #SDG3

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@DrRajnishGourh @armmanindia Not just the women enrolled into these programs, but also their immediate family members. Very often the women hear the preventive care information shared in the #mMitra & #Kilkari calls with their husbands and in-laws, which gives them a fresh perspective. #ARMMANChat #mHealth

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@armmanindia This is a very important question considering the significant digital divide in the country, where rural women are least likely to have internet access. Only 34% of women surveyed in rural India have ever used the internet, compared with 55% of men (NFHS 5). #ARMMANChat #mHeath

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@Mal_Malika @armmanindia This is very interesting. In some senses, #mHeatlh solutions seem to offer a kind of privacy that can be elusive in a country like India where communities are usually very close-knit but avoid taboo topics like sexual and reproductive health #ARMMANChat #SDG3 #technology

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@armmanindia #mHealth has tremendous potential considering the deep mobile penetration in India. A recent study by Wipro showed 25% of respondents had used some form of mHealth service within the last three months, with one in seven actually receiving care over their mobile. #ARMMANChat #SDG3

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@Mal_Malika @armmanindia @Bhuvane89366685 Yes, the first step is to acknowledge the fact that one glove doesn't fit all. The same solutions will not have the same benefit for all because of existing inequalities; and all solutions should be designed keeping this crucial fact in mind. #ARMMANChat #inequities #health #SDG3

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@Mal_Malika @armmanindia Yes, absolutely! We have to dig deeper than black and white metrics that are usually captured as data points for maternal and child health. #SDG3 #MCH #ARMMANChat

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@armmanindia India’s #IMR has declined from 50 deaths per thousand live births in 2009 to 32 in 2018. The numbers indicate that we are slowly inching towards achieving the #SDGs but inequalities in access to quality maternal and child healthcare continue to persist. #ARMMANChat #SDG3 #health

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

@armmanindia Statistically speaking, there have been substantial strides in certain aspects. Institutional deliveries have soared in the last few decades, indicating that a higher proportion of women have access to skilled care during childbirth. #SDG3 #maternalhealth #childhealth #ARMMANChat

[Kruti Dalal @TejLocal]

Less than an hour to go for the #ARMMANChat on inequities in the maternal & child health space in India. Join us at 5pm to discuss the role of #technology, effectiveness of #mHealth solutions, the gender digital divide and more with @DrRajnishGourh & @Mal_Malika of @armmanindia.

[ARMMAN @armmanindia]

Join ARMMAN on Twitter for a chat on Bridging Inequities In Maternal And Child Health Through mHealth Solutions.

Regular antenatal and paediatric care continues to be deprioritised as India fights the second wave of #COVID19. Thanks for speaking with me @cathedavison and highlighting @armmanindia's use of #technology to address the systemic gaps.

The second wave in India is putting pregnant women at risk - and not just from Covid-19. My latest, on how drastic resource shortages and lockdowns are compromising obstetric care, for @TelGlobalHealth. Thread: 🧵
