Safe motherhood and newborn health promotion package

The intervention package consists of three components: facility, community and linkages between the community and health facilities. Facility based interventions will serve both the comparison and intervention arms. However, other two interventions will serve the intervention arm only. Specific interventions and approaches for the three components will be implemented within the MOH\&FW service delivery system to improve MNH practices in families and communities and to increase the use of MNH services from appropriate facilities/providers. The intervention package has been developed based on the experiences from SMPP in Narsingdi district and on the basis of consultations with the International Advisory Body (IAB) that included GoB, JICA, ICDDR,B, other experts and stakeholders.
