BACKGROUND
WHO has supported the government to revise the RMNCAH 2016-2025 strategy. Key revisions include:
Moreover, several RMNCAH sub-committee teams have developed and endorsed guidelines and SOPs that have not yet been scaled up to the Health Centre level nation-wide, as it is the case also for the continued provision of safe Essential services in the era of COVID-19. The revised MCH Handbook provides a tangible support in promoting these different objectives and the government has requested WHO support to build capacity at the Health centres in provision of “people-centered” services and therefore strengthen Primary Health Care.
In addition to the support to the health system for PHC, the government is working towards the development of a more effective Community Engagement model that aims at reducing equity issues in health. WHO is currently supporting Tropical and Public Health Institute (TPHI) and MCH Centre to develop a participatory planning workshop with health centre and villages to engage community to increase uptake of essential MCH services.
These two areas of work aim to strengthen PHC from both supply and demand sides.
