Collectively, they invested more than $820 million between 2003 (1382 AC) and 2008-09 (1387 AC) and played key roles in supporting the government in reshaping the country's health sector. This support continues, with all partners starting new projects aimed at further strengthening the sector and building on the successes that have been achieved. The book is organized as follows. Chapters one-four tell a coherent story about the achievements of the sector between 2002 and 2008 (1381-87AC), the financial resources used to achieve the results, and the contribution the private sector has made to the achievements. Chapters five-eight) look forward. They identify the challenges the sector is facing in meeting human resource needs, expanding the coverage of the basic package of health services (BPHS), and increasing the institutional capacity of the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH). Chapter eight summarizes the lessons learned and provides options for moving forward.CC BY 3.0 IGOADEQUATE NUTRITIONAGE DISTRIBUTIONANTENATAL CAREBASIC HEALTH SERVICESBEHAVIOR CHANGEBIRTH ATTENDANTBIRTH ATTENDANTSCHILD HEALTHCHILD HEALTH SERVICESCHILD MORTALITYCHILD MORTALITY RATESCHILDBEARINGCHILDBIRTHCITIESCIVIL WARCLINICSCOMMUNITY HEALTHCONDOMCONTRACEPTIVE PREVALENCEDECISION MAKINGDELIVERY CAREDEMAND FOR SERVICESDEPENDENCY RATIODEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCEDIPHTHERIADISEASE CONTROLDISSEMINATIONDRUGSECONOMIC GROWTHEQUITABLE ACCESSEQUITY IN ACCESSESSENTIAL DRUGSESSENTIAL HEALTH SERVICESEXPENDITURESFAMILY PLANNINGFEMALE STERILIZATIONFERTILITYFERTILITY RATEFINANCIAL CONSTRAINTSGOOD GOVERNANCEGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTHEALTH CAREHEALTH CARE EXPENDITURESHEALTH CARE FINANCEHEALTH CARE FINANCINGHEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALSHEALTH CARE PROVIDERSHEALTH CARE SECTORHEALTH CARE SERVICESHEALTH CARE SYSTEMHEALTH CARE WORKERSHEALTH CENTERSHEALTH DELIVERYHEALTH ECONOMICSHEALTH EXPENDITURESHEALTH FACILITIESHEALTH INDICATORSHEALTH INSURANCEHEALTH INTERVENTIONSHEALTH MANAGEMENTHEALTH OF WOMENHEALTH OUTCOMESHEALTH POLICYHEALTH POSTSHEALTH PROBLEMSHEALTH PROFESSIONALSHEALTH PROMOTIONHEALTH PROVIDERSHEALTH SECTORHEALTH SERVICEHEALTH SERVICE DELIVERYHEALTH SERVICESHEALTH STATUSHEALTH SYSTEMHEALTH SYSTEM PERFORMANCEHEALTH SYSTEMSHEALTH WORKERSHEALTH WORKFORCEHOSPITALHOSPITAL SERVICESHOSPITALSHOUSEHOLD INCOMEHOUSEHOLD SURVEYSHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCESHUMAN RIGHTSILLNESSIMMUNIZATIONIMMUNIZATIONSINDIVIDUAL HOUSEHOLDSINFANTINFANT MORTALITYINFANT MORTALITY RATEINFORMATION SYSTEMINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINTERNATIONAL COMMITTEEINTERNATIONAL COMMUNITYINTERVENTIONIODINE DEFICIENCYIRONIUDKEY HEALTH INTERVENTIONSLABOR SUPPLYLAND MINESLEGAL STATUSLIVE BIRTHSLOW-INCOME COUNTRIESMALARIAMARKET ECONOMYMARRIED WOMENMATERNAL CAREMATERNAL CAUSESMATERNAL DEATHMATERNAL DEATHSMATERNAL HEALTHMATERNAL HEALTH SERVICESMATERNAL MORTALITYMATERNAL MORTALITY RATIOMATERNAL MORTALITY RATIOSMEASLESMEASLES IMMUNIZATIONMEDICAL CAREMIDWIFEMIDWIVESMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALMILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALSMODERN CONTRACEPTIONMORTALITYNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTNATIONAL PRIORITIESNATURAL RESOURCESNEONATAL MORTALITYNUMBER OF CHILDRENNUMBER OF DEATHSNUMBER OF HOUSEHOLDSNURSENUTRITIONNUTRITIONAL STATUSOUTPATIENT CAREOUTREACH ACTIVITIESPATIENTPATIENT SATISFACTIONPATIENTSPHOPHYSICIANSPILLPOLIOPOLIO VACCINEPOPULATION GROWTHPOPULATION SECTORPREGNANCYPREGNANCY COMPLICATIONSPREGNANCY STATUSPREGNANT WOMENPRIMARY HEALTH CAREPRIMARY HEALTH CARE FACILITIESPROGRESSPROVINCIAL HOSPITALSPROVISION OF SERVICESPUBLIC HEALTHPUBLIC HEALTH EXPENDITUREQUALITY OF CAREQUALITY OF SERVICESREFERRAL SYSTEMREPRODUCTIVE AGEREPRODUCTIVE HEALTHREPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CAREREPRODUCTIVE HEALTH SERVICESREPRODUCTIVE LIFERESOURCE FLOWSRESOURCE MOBILIZATIONRESOURCE NEEDSRISK OF PREGNANCYRULE OF LAWRURAL AREASRURAL DEVELOPMENTRURAL POPULATIONRURAL RESIDENTSSANITATIONSCHOOL ATTENDANCESECURITY SITUATIONSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE PROVIDERSSERVICE PROVISIONSERVICE QUALITYSERVICE UTILIZATIONSKILLED ATTENDANTSSKILLED BIRTH ATTENDANCESKILLED BIRTH ATTENDANTSSKILLED PERSONNELSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL SECTORSSOCIAL SECURITYSTERILIZATIONTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETETANUSTRANSPORTATIONTUBERCULOSISUNDER-FIVE MORTALITYURBAN AREASURBAN POPULATIONUSE OF CONTRACEPTIVESUSE OF HEALTH SERVICESUSE OF RESOURCESVACCINATIONVACCINESVULNERABILITYVULNERABLE GROUPSWALKINGWOMANWOMEN OF CHILDBEARING AGEWORKERSWORKFORCEWORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-8335-3
