Project Description

Health for Life (H4L) is a health system strengthening project in Nepal implemented by RTI International, in partnership with Jhpiego Corporation and the Integrated Rural Health Development Training Center Nepal . The project aims to strengthen the Ministry of Health and Population's capacity to plan, manage and deliver high-quality family planning and maternal, newborn and child health services. H4L activities directly address key health system constrains in the following areas: local health systems governance, data for decision making and evidence-based policy development, human resources management, quality improvement systems, and knowledge and behavior change. Addressing these constrains is being achieved through support at the national level and by providing technical assistance to 14 districts to improve the delivery of Family Planning/Maternal Newborn and Child Health services in a range of areas. Concurrently, H4L is also engaging in efforts to increase demand for services, focusing specifically on populations that have historically been underrepresented in health service utilization.
