Project description

To provide coherence to its ongoing health programmes, and moreover to better integrate health care reform projects in Tajikistan, the SDC found it rational to co-fund the World Bank “Community and Basic Health Project” (CBHP) which is seen also as a ground work for a future Sector Wide Approach (SWAP) in health sector.

As stated in the World Bank project document, the CBHP will have four components:

• Strengthening policy, planning and donor coordination within the Ministry of Health.
• Implementing organizational and financing reforms.
• Strengthening Primary Health Care (PHC) in selected districts.
• Financing a Project Implementation unit.

Each of the four project components implies the implementation of a broad range of activities to ultimately reach the objective.Objectives

• Increase access to health services
• Increase utilization of health services
• Increase patient satisfaction with health services
• Build capacity and efficiency at national, provinces and districts levels in administering of Primary Health Care (PHC) finance
