PANDEMIC

In most parts of the world, pandemic control measures not only require the strength of medical and logistical interventions but also need a form of effective communication strategy that resonates among the various communities. ATMN realizes that figures in society will play a critical role in public perceptions and behaviors by influencing these messages in rich ways. In crisis situations, false rumors or preventive information spread as sufficiently fast as the virus itself and act as barriers to patient compliance. ATMN links the health authorities with the mass people through the trusted voices at various platforms and easy dissemination of timely and culture-specific information to communities. They sweep the way for an actionable communication targeted which is known for having individualization, focus, and relativity in framing public health measures such as vaccination, mask-wearing, and social distancing. Such an approach dispels myths and misconceptions while building trust so that people will be willing to adopt behaviors that will protect themselves and their communities. Finally, ATMN brings another perspective into its projects by building an influencer movement into its pandemic response: a creative system through which individuals move into the action space as well as into resilience building against public health crises.

ONE BY ONE

A campaign launched in March 2020 by ATNM with an aim of raising awareness of Covid-19 in Tanzania. The project was first introduced when the pandemic was at its peak. The name one by one, reflected the goal of the project which was leaving no one behind. Leaving no one affected by the crushing effects of the pandemic by; • Reducing vaccine hesitancy and debunking misconceptions about Covid-19 vaccines. • Changing people’s perspective and behavior around the critical need to get vaccinated. • Increasing Covid-29 uptake by 20% or more in target regions. • Increasing trust and promote preventive behaviors such as taking vaccines, testing regularly ad maintaining a healthy lifestyle. These objectives were implemented through engaging various influencers such as; health care workers and youth leaders. National campaigns on social media, Radios and via celebrity influencers in targeted regions. Organizing special events that were vaccination based in the targeted regions and measuring the evaluation of the campaign. Through these strategies ATNM was successful in reaching the goal set as, 1 billion impressions were created and 36.5 Million people were reached during the campaign. Also, a shift in behavior towards the vaccine was changed as the rate of people vaccinated rose from 17% to 44% in December 2022 and records from WHO and CDC show that the rate raised to 70%.
