The main objective of the project is to:

• Organize workshops on Child and Reproductive Health,
• Traditional Birth Attendance (TBA) Training
• Organize group discussion on HIV/AIDS and Child nutrition.
• Awareness building for Education and Birth registration

Indigenous people of Northeast Bangladesh are not sensitized on the above issues and there is need to disseminate information on these topics. Without birth registration the indigenous people may be deprived from a total of 16 government facilities such as school enrollment and government service jobs. In the area of nutrition ECDO is helping the indigenous people to make them understand that there are cheaper vegetables that are available locally which are good for their health. The proper ways of hygiene are taught to the community people by ECDO, as well as this organization stressing the need for check-ups for pregnant mothers and offering suggestions on the government and visiting private health centers closer to their residence to increase their access to health facilities. ECDO has also given training on TBA to 25 women from different indigenous communities. These were women practicing child delivery, so the workshops were to add to their knowledge and skills. Information Education and Communication (IEC) materials like posters and leaflets on reproductive health and nutrition have also been disseminated to different indigenous communities in their own mother language.
