Bauchi Health Advocacy Group, BASAM, Overhauls Committees for Better Performance

By Bashir Hassan 

The Bauchi State Accountability Mechanism for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (BASAM), an advocacy-based Civil Society Organisation (CSO), has reiterated its commitment to driving evidence-based advocacy for improved healthcare outcomes across the state.

​This renewed commitment was collectively adopted by BASAM members during a strategic meeting held at the organisation's office in Bauchi.

​A key outcome of the meeting was the development of a short-term work plan designed to guide immediate activities. The plan aims to restructure and revitalize the organization's various subcommittees for optimal performance.

​In his welcoming remarks, the Co-chair of BASAM, Abu John Yusuf, thanked members and the management team for their resolve to reposition BASAM to its rightful place among State-Led Accountability Mechanisms (SLAMs) in Nigeria.

​Yusuf also emphasized the need to review BASAM’s Resource Mobilization Framework and boost the organisation's public visibility, particularly by leveraging its social media platforms.

​The resulting work plan places a heavy emphasis on upcoming advocacy visits to key Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs), as well as other non-state actors across Bauchi State.

Our Correspondent reports that, ​BASAM is a prominent evidence-based advocacy CSO with a diverse membership drawn from government MDAs, civil society, and the media.
