Learnings from the Implementation of Community-Based Monitoring for Health Program in Timor-Leste

Findings are based on participatory action research on reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, adolescent health, and nutrition (RMNCAHN) that LHSS conducted in 2022. It revealed the necessity to update the CBM Health guidelines based on learnings from the pilot and additional global best practice learnings. CBM Health involves a process in which communities engage in collective planning, dialogue, and action. It is guided by social and behavior change and social accountability theory and used to monitor the impact of community mobilization.
