The book provides an overview of school health promotion and adolescent health in India, and presents case studies of four programmes: SHAPE, UDAAN, Drishti and Prayatna. Together, these programmes cover seven states of India, and are characterised by different types of human resource delivery, levels of engagement with the school and students, and systems for monitoring and supervision. The case studies provide valuable lessons for strengthening existing programmes and developing new approaches.The target audience includes education and health policy-makers, administrators, researchers and practitioners in government, academic institutions, funding agencies, non-governmental organisations and civil society.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Author\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDivya Rajaraman has been working in health research, programme development, and implementation since 2001.
