Annual Behavioral Tracking Survey (CFSW) - 2007 (By PSI)

The Behavior Change Intervention Survey (BCIS)/Output Tracking Survey (OTS) was conducted in multiple rounds between April, 2006 to November, 2008 in four states (Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh) of India. The PSI/Avahan intervention was an integrated behaviour change communication programme that used multiple media channels (interpersonal communication (IPC), outdoor static promotional materials and mid-media activities) in 100 hotspots (venues where FSWs are solicited) in the four states. As part of the Avahan India AIDS Initiative, a behaviour change communication programme sought to increase consistent condom use (CCU) among male clients of female sex workers (FSWs) in four Indian states through the use of outdoor static promotional materials, interpersonal communication and mid-media activities.
