Access to Health Services: Three Millennium Development Goals Fund
After 50 years of military dictatorship and 60 years of civil conflict, Myanmar has started a political, social and economic reform in 2011. Still, the health Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are unlikely to be met without a significant increase in health services for the most vulnerable. SDC will thus contribute to the multi-donor 3 MDG Fund, to address the essential health needs of poor and vulnerable women, children and people with HIV, Tuberculosis and Malaria in Myanmar.

Hintergrund |
The government has increased the health budget from 1% of its total budget in 2011 to 3% in 2013. Still about 80% of health expenditures are out-of-pocket and access to quality health services is low. The situation is exacerbated in remote and border conflict-affected areas (lack of infrastructure, equipment, trained staff, language issues, transport and cost barriers). With progress towards peace, international partners are newly permitted to work in border conflict-affected areas that used to be ‘off limits’, giving them now access to underserved communities. |
