The Untold Story of Community Mobilizers Re-engaging a Disengaged Community During the Endemic Era of India s Polio Eradication Program

CORE Group Polio Project .community engagement needs to be on the agenda of any public health program from the start and not viewed as a separate objective. In fact, it is the most valued indicator of success. Although India s polio eradication programme began in earnest in 1995, gradually, the community disengaged from the programme as misinformation about the oral polio vaccine (OPV) spread. In states like Uttar Pradesh, vaccinators were met with refusals, sometimes accompanied by physical aggression. This brief article explores what caused this break in communication and how the CORE Group Polio Project (CGPP) s social mobilisers delved deep to uncover why communities had become suspicious of government intentions in offering OPV. In it, Roma Solomon argues: How the war against polio in India was won needs to be told so that lessons can be used for other community health interventions.
