Maternal new-born and Child Health services (MCH)

Ongoing

Our activities focused on improving reproductive, maternal, and new-born, child and adolescent health care using an integrated approach across the health system. Our approach focuses on supporting the Ministry and of health local stakeholders to jointly improve integrated service delivery for women, adolescents and children across the continuum of care from pre-pregnancy to delivery, the immediate postnatal period, and childhood. Our activities pay special attention to pregnant adolescents and young women as these are such a highrisk group for complications during pregnancy and delivery. We engage and mobilize communities to create support and demand for services, increasing access to equitable health care. We worked with community Health workers at community level, and PHC units to mobilize and strengthen demand for services increasing access to equitable health care.
