Description
This project, with financial assistance from SlovakAid, will support measures aimed at preventing mortality and reducing morbidity of IDPs and the South Sudan host community by improving access to quality primary health care and medicines. This objective will be met by implementing project activities by ensuring a continuous supply of medicines and medical supplies for medical facilities, increasing the capacity of local medical staff by recruiting and increasing staff expertise, supporting the operation of medical facilities and building more resilient communities. The main indicators of the success of the project will be the number of people receiving primary health care, which is at least 70 000 beneficiaries, the number of recruited and trained staff, which is a total of 120 health workers, the number of health care facilities supported, that is over 20 and the number of days when the medical facilities were without the most important medicines with the goal of 0 days. The target groups of this project are armed conflict, economic decline, high morbidity and mortality endangered and weakened host communities and internally displaced persons. With particular regard to this project, it will be the IDPs and the most vulnerable groups of the population, women, children, pregnant and breastfeeding women, disabled people and older people.
