83. Assess Needs
Tooth decay is the most common
chronic disease of childhood, causing
pain, absence from school, and loss of
confidence. Sadly, many children do
not have access to basic dental care
and the education needed to maintain
good oral health. But the good news is
that this disease is preventable.

and promotes good oral care habits.
Importantly, the program also encourages
children to care about themselves and take
responsibility for their own health. A
lifetime of healthy habits, burgeoning self-
esteem, a foundation for success -- that's the
Power of a Bright Smile.

Notes de l'éditeur
For many years communities were inextricably linked with social marketing. Lefebvre & Flora (1988) laid out the defining features of the social marketing approach based on experiences they shared directing community interventions for cardiovascular disease reduction. Yet, even by the early 1990s, we can recall where social marketing and community development components of Health Canada could not find common ground for collaboration. As more practitioners appropriated social marketing as the basis for the development of ‘new’ health communication campaigns, the term became associated (and in some quarters still is) with mass media campaigns that segmented their audience, pretested materials and considered the 4Ps only in the context of communication planning, not marketing.
The differences in the social marketing approach became even more pronounced in the international community where social marketing became synonymous with the marketing of products for family planning, HIV prevention and malaria control while various other groups organized themselves around concepts such as behavior change communication, health communication, development communication and community mobilization to name a few.

Gaining community insight into problems and their support for proposed solution.
Ensuring the use of indigenous knowledge and expertise.
Mobilizing and employing local communication channels including local mass media and local social and interpersonal communication networks.
Localizing distribution of products and services and improving access and opportunities to engage in new behaviors.
Helping build sustainable solutions.
Participation from the community may develop into a ‘participating elite’ who may, or may not, represent broader community viewpoints.
Program planners can fail to recognize the opportunity costs for people who are approached to participate in the development and oversight of the program.
Open participation also can lead to manipulation and conflict by and among different parties or stakeholders. And local agendas may not match those of the donor or lead agency.
Finally, he also notes that to truly move from a social marketing ‘shell’ of a program to a community-driven one, there is a need for partnership development and to gain strong public advocacy and political commitment to create a culture in which to embed and support social goals.
winning a battle depends heavily on how a tactician maneuvers his forces.
Mobilization - a Military terminology
To Mobilize = prepare forces for action

POLITICAL MOBILIZATION
An approach which aims at “winning political and policy commitment for major goal and the necessary resource allocations to realize that goal.”
And the best method that we can use here is through lobbying
Let us focus first on Political Mobilization. Since we are here in a highly political country, we have to accept the fact that our politicians must be viewed as an untapped resource in the improvement of our health system.
Through intensive lobbying, the President signed the law for graphic warnings on tobacco products, despite the fact that the President is a smoker.
GOVERNMENT MOBILIZATION
Aims at eliciting the cooperation of service providers and other government organizations which can provide direct or indirect support to the program.
Government mobilization aims at informing and enlisting the cooperation and help of service providers and other government organizations that can provide direct or indirect support.
Please take note that this is different from Political mobilization, because government mobilization targets the management aspect of the government, while political mobilization is more on dealing with the leadership aspect of the government.
The local health board in the LGUs is an example of government mobilization. In this setup, the mayor or governor serves as the Board Chair, and not the municipal or provincial MD.
COMMUNITY MOBILIZATION
Aims at gaining the commitment of local political, religious, social, and traditional leaders, as well as local government agencies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), women’s groups and cooperatives.
Know your community well, and understand their problems and their needs.
Be aware of existing health beliefs and practices that exist in the community.
Always listen to community members carefully.
Do not rapidly introduce new interventions that are different from existing practices and beliefs. Take gradual steps to introduce such practices.
Try to analyze community dynamics and adjust to each situation.
Involve the entire community in the program right from the beginning.
Give respect and importance to negative experiences of the community, if any, and try to minimize the negative feelings verbally and in your actions.
CORPORATE MOBILIZATION
Aims at securing the support of national or international companies in promoting development goals, either by contributing needed resources or carrying out the advertising function.
It aims at securing the support of national or international companies in promoting appropriate goals, either through the contribution of resources or the carrying of appropriate messages as a part of their advertising or product labelling.
Refers to operating a business in a manner that accounts for the social and environmental impact created by the business.
commitment to developing policies that integrate responsible practices into daily business operations
reporting on progress made toward implementing these practices.
BENEFICIARY MOBILIZATION
Involves informing and motivating the program beneficiaries through trainings, establishment of community groups, and communication through traditional and mass media.
Is an important component of social mobilization which involves “convincing, persuading, and motivating individuals and entities” that there is a problem and that there are appropriate policies and strategies which could be adopted for solving such a problem. (Valdecanas, et al., 1996).
Two words constantly associated
with advocacy efforts:
(1) Policy support; and
(2) Resource generation.
Advocacy is different from activism, as shown in this diagram. The key word here is suggesting, for the advocacy, vs acting, which is more of an action in activism.
Lynda L. West, Stephanie Corbey, Arden Boyer-Stephens, and Bonnie Jones, et al. (1999)
Its activities main purpose is the generation of information or release of ready-made information and distribution through all available communication methods (Heffner 1998).
Should not be regarded as a “mere information campaign or communication project but a long-term program built into the sectoral programs of a community” (Stuart 1995).
Entertainment - has also been used for educational purposes.
Songs, radio and TV shows/plugs, serial dramas or soap operas, and the like were proven to be helpful in making developmental messages more appealing to the general public (Piotrow, et al. 1997).
Enter-Educate Approach - Involves activities that entertain and educate simultaneously.
Aims to “empower local leaders, parents, families, groups, and the whole community.” (Stuart 1995)

Can be directed both towards the program implementers themselves and towards the beneficiaries/intended audience.
Use to enhance “people’s knowledge, appreciation of, and skills in advocacy, mobilization, and community organizing of people empowerment” (Stuart 1995).
The “common thread” that runs through all the other socmob elements (Valdecanas, et al. 1996).
Adds to the success of any mobilization activity by identifying those who can “actually and potentially act on the problem” and establishing close collaboration with them (Stuart 1995).
It is a socmob component strategy which measures the “efficiency of program implementation and the effectiveness of the strategies taken in achieving defined goals” (Stuart 1995).

The cornerstone of the program is an award winning educational curriculum developed with an international advisory board and translated into 30 languages. Delivered in partnerships with teachers, the curriculum includes instructions on how to brush and floss and the other keys to maintaining healthy teeth and gums. The program is supported by engaging games and videos that educate and entertain children. Distribution of a free tube of toothpaste and a toothbrush -- sometimes a child's first brush — is an important part of the program.
In the Philippines, Colgate adapted at Bright Smiles, Bright Futures™ Program as its flagship Corporate Social Responsibility Program. It has partnered with the Department of Education and Philippine Association of Dental Colleges to implement oral health projects that benefit Filipino children all over the archipelago.
For more than 10 years, Colgate, the Department of Education and various dental associations worked hand-in-hand to provide oral health awareness education and dental services to public school children nationwide.
The oral health education and awareness campaign includes the following efforts:
Developing of oral health education and materials that have been integrated in the curriculum
Providing of oral health materials such as posters, oral care kits, and toothbrush holders to public school children
Mounting exciting events such as the Dr. Rabbit School Tour, Poster Making Contests and exciting tooth brushing drills and campaign nationwide.
Celebrating the National Dental Health Month every February.
Involving the media to amplify oral health campaign to reach more people nationwide.
Beyond its commitment to oral health education, Colgate Philippines has also provided oral health services to public school children in their respective communities. To date the program has reached close to 35 million public children nationwide.
