BHW is scanning health news published in six mainstream leading daily newspapers (3 Bangla, 3 English) since March 2020 through a media firm/house to generate evidence for its advocacy initiatives. The media house has been developing monthly analyzed report based on the media scanning.

BHW carried out a study on fear and stigma related to Covid-19. Based on that study BHW launched a well-designed outreach communication campaign to sensitize the wider population against fear and stigma related to Covid-19. The campaign targets potentially stigmatized people, those who make people stigmatized, and support groups like local administration, political agencies; BGMEA, BKMEA. This initiative was a series of online-based campaign programs that included video spots and other static materials.

BHW received a four-year-long project funded by SIDA.  The project titled  'Making Bangladesh’s Healthcare Systems More Responsive and Participatory (2019-23)' had few goals and objectives. These are-

a) Empower civil society platforms and individual voices to hold the government and other stakeholders accountable for major health sector commitments.
b) Conduct evidence-based advocacy to improve the quality of care, transparency, and equity, especially in hard-to-reach, poor areas, with a particular emphasis on women and young girls.
c) Improve the understanding of duty bearers regarding issues related to the quality of care, accountability, and equity. This objective aimed to ensure that those responsible for upholding and enforcing health sector commitments were well-informed and equipped to address these critical issues effectively.
