IDSK Needs Assessment to Guide New Strategy at Udayan

 

In order to capture data on the situation in Leprosy Colonies, Udayan commissioned a Needs Assessment Study by Institute of Development Studies Kolkata which will be used to inform the Udayan strategy going forward.

For the past 6months, professors at the Institute of Development Studies Kolkata have been undertaking the in-depth research study and spent 21 days in the field interviewing leprosy affected families from 7 Leprosy Colonies.

A formal report has been developed which will be used as a baseline to develop in-community programs going forward, and to underpin the Udayan Strategy which will be developed over the coming months.
