Seeing is Believing (SiB) is Standard Chartered’s flagship community investment programme which provides funding to address avoidable blindness and promote quality eye health.
Project partners have contributed articles on gender, advocacy, integrating eye health into primary health care, working in consortium, awareness raising & working with Government, giving insights into how project managers and ophthalmic staff often grapple with & overcome complicated local and national issues when implementing eye health projects.
We also encourage projects to share the research that is funded through SiB projects here, as well as in peer reviewed journals when possible. This research has covered various issues from helping to identify the magnitude of blindness in their communities or to finding what are the blockages for people accessing services. Available articles include: ‘Attitudes of parents, students and teachers towards glasses use: In Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City’ (PDF), and a Patient Satisfaction Survey in Jordan.
