Abstract
The project is implemented by Pathfinder International and is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Department for International Development (DFID) of the United Kingdom. In January 2016, the project's key activities included training 1,181 staff from SH NGO and Clinic on Social Analysis and Action (SAA) and Gender Equitable Approaches to Service Delivery, Treat, and Counseling to GBV Survivors. Additionally, 24 paramedics from 24 EmOC clinics received training on Essential Newborn Care (ENC), newborn resuscitation, and other essential newborn care practices. The project also conducted advocacy meetings with government officials to promote the project's activities and secure support for the Surjer Hashi clinics. The project's coordination with the Government of Bangladesh (GoB) was also strengthened through meetings with senior officials. The project's monthly statistical report for January 2016 presents key indicators related to the project's performance. The report shows that the total number of Couple Years of Protection (CYP) achieved in January 2016 was 129,576, a decrease of 0.6% from December 2015. The report also shows that the total number of service contacts increased by 0.6% in January 2016 compared to December 2015. The report presents data on various health indicators, including the number of deliveries with a Skilled Birth Attendant (SBA), ANC checkups, and Essential Newborn Care (ENC) provided. The data shows that the number of facility deliveries decreased by 0.6% in January 2016 compared to December 2015, while the number of ANC checkups decreased by 1.6% in January 2016 compared to December 2015. The report also presents data on the number of service contacts to the poor, which decreased by 0.4% in January 2016 compared to December 2015. The report highlights the importance of expanding the client base, especially for the poor, for quality Essential Service Package (ESP). The project's overall service statistics at a glance show that the total service contacts increased from 7,083 in January 2013 to 3,681,196 in January 2016. The data also shows that the number of child health, maternal health, family planning, and other health services provided increased significantly during this period. The project's performance is monitored through various indicators, including the number of CYP achieved, total service contacts, and the number of deliveries with an SBA. The project's data shows that the number of CYP achieved decreased by 0.6% in January 2016 compared to December 2015, while the total number of service contacts increased by 0.6% in January 2016 compared to December 2015. The project's data also shows that the number of ANC checkups decreased by 1.6% in January 2016 compared to December 2015, while the number of ENC provided decreased by 4.8% in January 2016 compared to December 2015. The project's data highlights the importance of improving the quality of health services provided to the poor and vulnerable populations. The project's overall goal is to improve health service delivery in Bangladesh, particularly for the poor and vulnerable populations. The project's data shows that significant progress has been made in achieving this goal, but there is still a need to improve the quality of health services provided and to expand the client base, especially for the poor.
