AUDIENCES AND MESSAGE DEVELOPMENT<br />

28<br />

Although the initial target audiences for <strong>AI</strong>.<strong>COMM</strong> were small backyard poultry<br />

farmers (Sector 4), this limited pool was soon exp<strong>and</strong>ed to include a variety<br />

of related <strong>and</strong> non-related stakeholders, such as poultry associations <strong>and</strong> vendors,<br />

poultry consumers, veterinary staff, animal <strong>and</strong> human health offi cials <strong>and</strong> workers,<br />

small commercial poultry (Sector 3) farms, government offi cials, journalists <strong>and</strong><br />

private sector entities. Indeed, as with any comprehensive BCC program, messages<br />

<strong>and</strong> materials need to come from a variety of sources <strong>and</strong> stakeholders – people who<br />

infl uence <strong>and</strong> interact with the target audience. These diverse audiences ranged from<br />

transporters of poultry in Malawi, to people who use kärcher machines (pressurized<br />

washers used to clean wet market stalls) in Bangladesh.
