IEC/BCC is; Information Education Communication and Behavioral Change Communication. This committee is charged with the responsibility of designing activities mainly focused on information Dissemination and behavioral change campaigns, and the activities carried out include:
​
1. The weekly newsletter (The Weekly Print).
This is known to MUST as the Weekly Print. It is a students’ newsletter that provides a means of packaging information mainly received from students’ community. It reaches five hundred students weekly, though the weekly trend has changed due to lack of production resources. The content of this Newsletter are mainly students’ personal experiences at the university, life skills and issues on general and sexual reproductive health. It is therefore a means through which students express themselves and learn from each other.
​
2. Top Talk Time
Top Talk Time (3Ts’) is a platform on which students get to meet, interact and exchange information with their influential persons in and around MUST, it’s like a live talk show in other word, it is normally carried out on Saturday evenings. As earlier stated, it is an open forum, interactive in nature and it’s modulated by peer educators. Through this forum, issues on sexuality, life skills, university life and its challenges and coping mechanisms are discuss openly by students and invited influential persons in and outside MUST facilitated by peer education.
​
3. Information Education Communication (IEC) Materials
Peer educators develop IEC/BCC materials on youth sexuality and issues relating to reproductive health and life planning skills for the project. These materials include designing brochures on various themes, posters and fliers on the ABC strategy against HIV/AIDS.
​
3. Forum theatre
This is mainly a drama activity in which participants present a play depicting an oppressor, the oppressed, and the neutral characters in the play which is acted two (2) time with the second time the audience interjecting in the play to release the oppressed from their ostensible situation. It provokes the thinking on how young people can be guided or accompanied in their lives challenges.
​
4. Comedy Night
To increase student participation in the project, the Kina MUST drama series was introduced in 2005 and now being upgraded to a movie, to break monotony, Comedy night was as introduced by the IEC/BCC committee to replace Kina MUST drama series. It ushered in a new wave of excitement, exploding into the most fancied activity. It derives its concept of information dissemination on the fact that peers are more interactive and a credible source of information to other peers.
