Ethics approval and consent to participate
: This paper is based on a ‘Doers and Non-doers survey’ that was originally carried out for project management and not research. Hence, the project management team did not take approval from the ethics committee of any research/academic institute. However, this study followed the guidelines issued by National Committee for Ethics in Social Science Research in Health (NCESSRH) and ethical behavior guidelines developed by Coral Research Services. Verbal consent was obtained from the child’s caretaker before administrating the survey instruments. The authors of this paper later conducted secondary data analysis of de-identified survey data and did not have access to personal identifiers of the survey respondents or have any further contact with survey respondents for the secondary data analysis.
