Tanzania Maternal and Child Health

Funding under this initiative supports a package of three activities that provide a platform for AusAID to expand its maternal and child health program in Tanzania. The objective is to strengthen the capacity of government and communities to improve Maternal and Child Health (MCH) outcomes. Grant funding is provided to: the Global Health Alliance Western Australia (GHAWA) - GHAWA goal is to Improve Nursing and Midwifery capacity for tutors, nurses and midwives, in 2 public and private health training institutions and their associated practice sites; the African Medical and Research Foundation (AMREF). The goal of the AMREF program is to increase access to Integrated Management of Childhood Illnesses (IMCI) and treatment of micronutrient deficiencies in children under five years old. AMREF specific objectives are a) to increase by 40% the proportion of children receiving appropriate treatment in the community and health facilities for malaria, pneumonia and diarrhoea by 2013; and b) to reduce the proportion of children with micronutrient deficiencies by 15% in target districts by 2013; and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for Family Planning Commodities Program (FPC). The USAID FPC activity supports the Tanzania Ministry of Health and Social Welfare's (MoHSW) objective: lift the Contraceptive Prevalence Rate (CPR) from 26% (2.2 million Tanzanian women using modern contraception) to President Kikwete's objective of 60% CPR, or approximately 5.4 million women using an effective method of their choice by 2015. The expected results of the USAID EPI/MC activity are (together with other donors): - 6.7 million children 9 months to 5 years will get the measles vaccine - 8 million children will get bOPV - 7.1 million children 9 to 59 months will get Vitamin A - 6.2 million children will get deworming tablets. The total value of this multi-country initiative is $9.2 million over 2 years, starting 2010-11.
