Programme overview
A concept to strengthen primary healthcare networks by building or upgrading clinics, adding solar power and water, equipping them, and supporting community health workers and mobile outreach.
Intended community benefits
- Closer access to care
- Safer births
- Reliable vaccine cold chain
- Better diagnosis
- Stronger community health outreach
The problem
Rural clinics often lack power, water, staff and equipment, and many families live far from any facility, so preventable illness goes untreated.
Proposed interventions
- Clinic construction and rehabilitation
- Solar electrification and water
- Diagnostic equipment
- Mobile medical camps
- Community health-worker training
- Telemedicine links
Delivery and operating model
