This issue of INFO Reports discusses three aspects of entertainment-education to improve
family planning/reproductive health and prevent HIV infection:
• How E-E works and its potential effects on knowledge, attitudes, and behavior;
• The best uses of the various E-E formats; and
• The important steps for managing E-E projects, within the framework of the general process for developing communication programming.
Managers of family planning/reproductive health programs and policy makers can use this report
to become more knowledgeable advocates for E-E and better prepared to oversee E-E projects.
Also, this report can help E-E managers with choosing formats and producing E-E products. For radio or TV dramas, a checklist includes the tasks that are the responsibility of the E-E manager.
