Our commitment is to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of "Ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all at all ages." Among the SDG targets, our primary  focus is on "ending all preventable deaths under 5 years of age". We can also help "achieve universal health coverage" including "access to sexual and reproductive health-care services."

Aware of the national and local health priorities in Talensi and drawing on four years' project experience, Dr Nana’s main strategic aim for the period 2020-2023 is:

• to enhance the capability of community health staff to deliver effective healthcare and preventive interventions.

The three main methods for doing this will be:

• Supporting in-service training programmes for community health staff;

• Renovating and improving community health buildings and providing essential infrastructure such as water and power supply and medical equipment;

• Increasing the size and reliability of the District’s motorbike fleet.

 

To enable this to be done effectively, Dr Nana will:

• Work in partnership with the Talensi District Health Service and Peal Deng NGO;

• Seek funding for projects and administrative support from the UK Government, other funding bodies and individual donors;

• Administer all available funds to achieve good value-for-money and with full financial transparency;

• Carefully evaluate all projects so that useful lessons can be learnt and progress made.
