Society for Nutrition, Education and Health Action (SNEHA): An Ethos of Care

Abstract

This case study documents the journey of SNEHA- a public health organization that works in dense poor and low income urban settlements. It emphasizes on prevention and adopting community based approaches to reduce excessive reliance on institution-led public health delivery. It also documents organizational culture of appreciative inquiry, and use of technology and community based models that has allowed SNEHA to flourish in a rapidly urbanizing agglomeration.
